The Catalina Island Museum annual Telethon has grown to become the most important fundraising event of our year.  Not only does it generate revenue that supports our mission to collect, preserve and share Catalina's remarkable cultural heritage but it's also a fun way to participate in an island event---no matter where you are!

Thanks to the folks at www.eCatalina.com our live broadcast, hosted by Catalina Cable TV, will now be able to be watched on the Internet from anywhere in the world! 

Donate to the Telethon HERE!

We've raised over $41,000! THANK YOU!

And are still accepting contributions.
We have $17,000 left to raise in order to get the full match from the Schreiner Family....can you help?

There are lots of ways to contribute to the Telethon: Call  310/510-2414, ext. 1#.  Mail in a donation, clearly marked for Telethon. Or donate online through our secure server (see link above).
