Ways to Give
Whether you name Heritage Park in your will or give a gift in memory of a loved one, your donation helps us share stories of Western Canada's diverse history for future generations.
One Person Can Make a Difference
Give a Future to the Past
Heritage Park is a registered charity that relies on the generosity of donors to continue offering memorable experiences to its guests. All donations to the Park, no matter their size, make a difference. Aside from financial gifts, we also gratefully accept gifts of publicly-traded securities. Please give generously to the past that has shaped the life you enjoy today.
Legacy Giving
Thanks to a $1,500 bequest from Chinese immigrant Jimmy Smith, Calgary’s first General Hospital was established in a rented cottage in October 1890. Heritage Park’s Cottage Hospital stands as a testament to those early pioneers, like Jimmy, who cared about the future of their community. You too can have a lasting legacy; to learn more, email us at plannedgiving@heritagepark.ca or call us at 403.268.8629.
Exhibit Adoption Program
Heritage Park houses some of the finest examples of heritage buildings, architecture and exhibits in Western Canada. You can be directly involved in their preservation. An annual symbolic adoption of your favorite heritage building or vintage vehicle will help maintain it for years to come.

A Collecting Pause
While we thank you for your interest in giving us your historic treasures, until June of 2024 we are not accepting historical artifacts. We are taking this time to do a full inventory of our collections, to ensure they are used effectively and are well maintained.
Your Gifts at Work
Heritage Park is grateful for our donors and the gifts that allow us to create a fun, magical place where visitors can connect to the past on a deeper level. To learn more about how your donations help Heritage Park, please read our donor impact reports.
