is a registered public charity and it is not affiliated with the Government of Manitoba. It is unlike historical societies in many parts of the United States, which are typically affiliated with鈥攁nd funded by鈥攁 state government. Anyone can <a href="https://mhs.ca/get-involved/become-a-member/" data-type="page" data-id="36">become an MHS member.</a></p> <p>The MHS holds fast to the mandate of our founders, continuing their legacy of preservation, promotion, research, and education. Our <a href="https://mhs.ca/honours-awards/">award programs</a> recognize the works of Manitoba youth, and the many farms, businesses, and organizations that have operated continuously for 100 years or more. We are advocates for preserving our province鈥檚 built heritage. We present field trips throughout our province, host films and lectures, and organize multicultural events where Manitobans can share their rich past.</p> <p>Over time, the MHS amassed impressive collections of books and artefacts which became the basis of today鈥檚 <a href="http://www.mhs.mb.ca/info/links/am.shtml" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Archives of Manitoba</a>, <a href="http://www.mhs.mb.ca/info/links/millennium.shtml" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Winnipeg Public Library</a>, and <a href="http://www.mhs.mb.ca/info/links/mm.shtml" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Manitoba Museum</a>.</p></div></div> <div class="wp-block-kadence-column kadence-column17_8d806e-65 inner-column-2"><div class="kt-inside-inner-col"><h2 class="wp-block-heading" style="font-size:60px">Donate</h2> <p>As a registered Canadian Charitable Organization, the MHS welcomes and encourages donations; they are a major means by which the costs of our activities are supported, including our magazine <em><a href="https://mhs.ca/prairie-history/" data-type="page" data-id="21">Prairie History</a></em> and our comprehensive website that now comprises over 30,000 pages.</p> <div class="wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex"><div class="wp-block-button"><a class="wp-block-button__link has-white-color has-text-color wp-element-button" href="https://mhs.ca/get-involved/donate" style="border-radius:0px">DONATE</a></div></div></div></div> </div></div></div></div> </div></div><div class="kb-row-layout-wrap kb-row-layout-id17_a248e5-f2 alignfull has-background-clay-green-background-color kt-row-has-bg wp-block-kadence-rowlayout"><div class="kt-row-layout-overlay kt-row-overlay-normal"></div><div class="kt-row-column-wrap kt-has-1-columns kt-row-layout-equal kt-tab-layout-inherit kt-mobile-layout-row kt-row-valign-top"> <div class="wp-block-kadence-column kadence-column17_07a711-e5 inner-column-1"><div class="kt-inside-inner-col"><div class="kb-row-layout-wrap kb-row-layout-id17_242687-69 alignnone wp-block-kadence-rowlayout"><div class="kt-row-column-wrap kt-has-2-columns kt-row-layout-equal kt-tab-layout-inherit kt-mobile-layout-row kt-row-valign-top"> <div class="wp-block-kadence-column kadence-column17_bded58-bb inner-column-1"><div class="kt-inside-inner-col"><h2 class="wp-block-heading is-style-serif has-xlarge-font-size" style="font-style:normal;font-weight:400">History</h2> <p class="is-style-serif">A lot has happened over the 144 years that the MHS has operated.

We also understand that before real change can happen, the truth must be revealed, and only then can we make the path clear for reconciliation. Our organization is committed to help educate, support, preserve, and promote Indigenous, First Nations, M茅tis, and Inuit histories, traditions, languages, and culture through our publications and online resources. We can help to address the systemic racism, discrimination, and marginalization that has been experienced by Indigenous communities in Canada.</p> <p>The Manitoba Historical Society office is located on original lands of Anishinaabeg, Cree, Oji-Cree, Dakota, and Dene peoples, and on the National Homeland of the Red River M茅tis. We respect the Treaties that were made on these territories, we acknowledge the harms and mistakes of the past, and we dedicate ourselves to move forward in partnership with Indigenous communities in a spirit of reconciliation and collaboration.</p> </div> </div> <div class="footer-menu has-white-color"> <div class="menu-footer-menu-container"><ul id="footer-menu" class="menu"><li id="menu-item-112" class="menu-item menu-item-type-post_type menu-item-object-page menu-item-112"><a href="https://www.mhs.ca/terms-conditions/">Terms & Conditions</a></li> <li id="menu-item-111" class="menu-item menu-item-type-post_type menu-item-object-page menu-item-111"><a href="https://www.mhs.ca/about-us/faqs/">FAQS</a></li> <li id="menu-item-113" class="menu-item menu-item-type-post_type menu-item-object-page menu-item-113"><a href="https://www.mhs.ca/get-involved/donate/">Donate</a></li> <li id="menu-item-5701" class="menu-item menu-item-type-taxonomy menu-item-object-product_cat menu-item-5701"><a href="https://www.mhs.ca/product-category/membership/">Join / Subscribe</a></li> </ul></div> </div> <div class="follow-us"> <h2>FOLLOW US</h2> <div class="social-links has-white-color"><a class="link" target="_blank" href="https://twitter.com/manitobahistory"><i class="fa-brands fa-twitter"></i></a><a class="link" target="_blank" href="https://www.youtube.com/c/ManitobaHistoricalSociety/videos"><i class="fa-brands fa-youtube"></i></a><a class="link" target="_blank" href="https://www.instagram.com/manitobahistory/"><i class="fa-brands fa-instagram"></i></a><a class="link" target="_blank" href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/manitobahistory"><i class="fa-brands fa-facebook-f"></i></a><a class="link" target="_blank" href="https://www.tiktok.com/@manitobahistory"><i class="fa-brands fa-tiktok"></i></a></div> <div class="registration">BN: 122814601RR0001</div> <div class="member-login has-black-color"> <a href="/login">MEMBER <br/>LOGIN</a> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="alignfull"> <div class="site-info has-black-color"> Copyright © 2024 Manitoba Historical Society • <a href="/privacy-policy">PRIVACY POLICY</a> • <a href="/terms">TERMS</a> </div> </div> </footer> </div>  <script type="text/javascript"> var sbiajaxurl = "https://www.mhs.ca/wp-admin/admin-ajax.php"; </script> <script type="text/javascript">jQuery(function($){ function load_moneris_payment_form_handler() { window.wc_moneris_payment_form_handler = new WC_Moneris_Payment_Form_Handler( {"plugin_id":"moneris","id":"moneris","id_dasherized":"moneris","type":"credit-card","csc_required":true,"csc_required_for_tokens":true,"environment":"prod","isCheckoutLoggingEnabled":false,"isPayPageEnabled":false} );window.jQuery( document.body ).trigger( "update_checkout" ); } try { if ( 'undefined' !== typeof WC_Moneris_Payment_Form_Handler ) { load_moneris_payment_form_handler(); } else { window.jQuery( document.body ).on( 'wc_moneris_payment_form_handler_loaded', load_moneris_payment_form_handler ); } } catch ( err ) { var errorName = '', errorMessage = ''; if ( 'undefined' === typeof err || 0 === err.length || ! err ) { errorName = 'A script error has occurred.'; errorMessage = 'The script WC_Moneris_Payment_Form_Handler could not be loaded.'; } else { errorName = 'undefined' !== typeof err.name ?
