Overview
Mission
Preservation of local history for Langhorne Borough and surrounding communities.
What it reported doing in 2024
The Museum and library are open to the general public at no charge on Wednesday and Saturday mornings and Wednesday evenings, and by appointment. Regular member meetings (also open to the public at no charge) with speakers on local history topics are held on the 4th Monday of March, April, September and October. Presentations on local history are made to local organizations. The organization publishes a newsletter three times a year and maintains a website. Organization volunteers maintain the museum collection, assist visitors to the building, and respond to questions and requests for information received by mail, telephone and email. Board meetings are conducted monthly. During October, the organization offers its annual Ghost Tours of Langhorne. This is a significant fundraising event consisting of evening walking tours with a combination of local history information and ghost stories associated with the historic Langhorne homes. Other fundraising events include a Spring Tea with a speaker and an annual Strawberry festival. The organization participates in the local Garden Club's Holiday House Tour in November and hosts an afternoon with Santa in December. The museum is also open during other local events including a Harvest Day in October and a Car Show in July both sponsored by the local Business Association.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Mixed. Its operating money came from several sources; no one source provided a clear majority.
- Distribution model
- Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.
The verdict
STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Reported officer compensation is a large share of total spending, which may reflect staffing concentration.
