Our donors sustain our work. By becoming a monetary donor, you join us in the effort to preserve and share lesbian and feminist histories. Each gift, even small ones, helps us better serve the community as a whole. Your gift ensures that our lesbian and feminist history is never lost or stolen again.

Your donation helps us purchase:

  • Archival supplies like acid-free boxes, folders, and protective casings for fragile audio materials

  • New technologies such as a computer, archival software, and hard drives for saving and sharing our digital materials

  • Storage units (poster racks, shelving, bookshelves)

Legacy Gifts

When you include June L. Mazer Lesbian Archives in your will or estate plan, you ensure that your contribution lives on. You can make a Gift to the Mazer through your Will or Trust (please note the Mazer does not have to be the sole beneficiary). Or you can name the Mazer as a Beneficiary of your IRA or qualified retirement plan, insurance policy, or bank account.


 Material Donations

Everything in the June L. Mazer Lesbian Archives has been donated from the community. As we are always looking to expand the collection, please consider donating.

We are especially interested in unique, one-of-a-kind items including letters, personal diaries, photos, home videos, community organization papers and any other materials that help tell our stories to future generations.

The Mazer recognizes there are historical holes within our collection and continue to build and expand it to reflect the variety and diversity of Lesbians everywhere.

We are not accepting books (mass produced, non-1st editions), furniture, large framed items, or duplicate publications or periodicals.

Before donating materials please contact us by phone (310) 659-2478 or email to arrange pick up or drop off.
