"I called upon a friend, and desired him to make the signals. I then went...to the North part of town, where I had kept a boat; two friends rowed me across the Charles River...I set off upon a very good horse..."

On the night of his famous midnight ride, Paul Revere called upon several reliable friends to help him. As an artisan, businessman, entrepreneur and industrialist, Paul Revere's name is associated with reliability, quality workmanshop and ingenuity. Over 230 years later the Paul Revere Memorial Association still relies on the help of special corporate and business friends. The Association has a record of successfully working with local business and national corporations on promotional sponsorships, prduct development and philanthropic ventures. We offer all manner of opportunities to businesses that want to partner with us - great exposure to our many visitors both on-site and on-line, remarkable programs that can carry a "sponsored by" banner, and numerous ways to reach Boston's many undeserved youth populations by supporting free programs.

Proud Tradition of Research, Scholarship, Education and Community Service

Since 1908, the Association has extended every effort to fulfill its dual mission of preservation and education. Though admissions provide us with a stable, dependable base of annual income, as a private, non-profit institution, we also depend on outside support to accomplish our goals. By becoming a corporate member or sponsor, you not only take part in preserving America's past, you enrich America's future. By supporting us on an annual basis or by supporting a special project or program, you are helping us continue a proud tradition.

The Revere House and its companion, the Hichborn House, are both landmarks of national significance and key attractions along the Freedom Trail. We work actively to preserve and maintain our historic buildings through a program of ongoing repairs and carefully supervised restoration. Both houses have survived three centuries of change and play a role in sustaining the colonial character of the City of Boston and the North End. The Paul Revere House, while identified with its most famous resident, served initially as home to a wealthy merchant, Robert Howard, later became a tenement with shops for a growing Italian community and eventually a museum. Today, the site chronicles everyday life and change in our neighborhood, Boston's North End, from the 17^th through the 20^th century.

More than just a historic site, we represent a proud tradition of research, scholarship and education. Both the Revere House and the Hichborn House serve as educational tools, providing doorways to the past for children, teens, and adults. A wide variety of educational programs are offered with the aim of acquainting students with Boston's long and colorful history. Over the years, we have kept our admissions fees low so that the greatest number of visitors can come through the house. We have never denied entrance to youth or student groups unable to afford our fees. We actively solicit grants to allow us to offer programs for free to underserved minority audiences. We also maintain a tradition of offering free admission to all residents and businesses of our immediate neighborhood, the North End. The site welcomes from as near as "up the street" and as far as Australia and Russia. The Paul Revere House is one of a handful of historic sites that stands out as landmarks in the minds of all Americans.
