The Monadnock Summer Lyceum's income is generated solely from donations and sponsorships. The organization is run entirely by volunteers, so that income goes right into the program. Our expenses include offering a modest honorarium to speakers, printing of promotional and publicity materials, updating sound and recording equipment, and paying for rental fees.

- Angels $500+
- Patrons $250-$499
- Founders $182.80 (recognizing the Lyceum's founding in 1828)
- Friends $100-$249
- Supporters $50-$99
All donations are tax-deductible.
