Support AOGHS

American Oil & Gas Historical Society (AOGHS) membership is free but we need your financial support for researching petroleum history, producing our email newsletter, and maintaining this website. Help expand our coverage and continue to deepen the understanding of America’s petroleum past.

Your Support makes a Difference!

Individual contributions help AOGHS preserve U.S. petroleum history. Become part of our dedicated community of oil patch historians and energy educators. Please donate — and also be sure to register to receive our popular monthly email newsletter, Oil & Gas History News. 

AOGHS is in the business of preserving petroleum history, which provides a context for understanding the modern energy industry. Donations can also be made via PayPal. 

Your help is greatly appreciated. Questions? Email Executive Director Bruce Wells (bawells@aoghs.org) or call (202) 387-6996. Please make checks payable to American Oil & Gas Historical Society — or AOGHS — and mail to AOGHS 3204 18th St, NW, No. 3, Washington, DC 20010.
