Overview

Mission

To collect, record, store, protect and interpret the physical and cultural heritage of the city of deland & west volusia county, and to share that heritage with the community and visitors alike.

What it reported doing in 2025

The society operates 1) the deland house, a historic house exhibiting antiques, photos, preserved books, maps, and relics; 2) the conrad center, an education center showcasing historic exhibits, a meeting room and a growing library, and 3) the hospital museum, housing eight galleries and exhibits.

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

SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up and a large share of total spending goes to programs. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and liabilities are high compared with assets.
