Your Donation Matters
When you donate to the Peoria PlayHouse Children’s Museum, you’re investing in a place where imagination thrives, curiosity is sparked, and lifelong learning begins. Your support helps bring hands-on exhibits and creative programming to life, inspiring children to explore, experiment, and dream. With your generosity, we can reach more children, foster a love for learning, and create moments that families will cherish forever. Join us in making an impact—because every child deserves a place where wonder knows no limits.
If you would like to donate by mail, please send your donation to the Peoria Park District Development Office, Peoria Park District, 1125 W Lake Avenue, Peoria, IL 61614. If you have questions or need assistance, or would like information about sponsoring a specific program or exhibition through a donation, or the benefits of becoming a major donor, please contact the PlayHouse Director, Melissa Sierra at 309.681.2853.

Donate Recyclables
The PlayHouse welcomes in-kind donations of materials and services, including safe, clean, non-toxic manufacturing scraps and household recyclables. Here is a list of some of the things we are looking for, but we take anything clean that you might throw out or recycle that could become art!
