How Your Donation Helps

Care for Our Facilities

The original adobe church, destroyed by earthquake in 1868, was reconstructed in 1985 over the original foundation. After more than 35 years of exposure to the elements, you can help us restore the Church’s exterior.
Enhance our Museum

The Mission San Jose Museum welcomes almost 10,000 visitors each year, 3,000 of whom are 4th graders studying California history. Help us improve the educational experience for all through new exhibits, multi-media, and hands-on activities.
Maintain our Grounds

Our historic cemetery and peaceful Patio Garden require constant attention such as maintenance of 200+ year old olive trees, repair of adobe walls and replacement of cracked tiles. Your donations help keep our grounds looking beautiful.

Committee for
Restoration of
Mission San Jose

CRMSJ was formed in 1975 as a secular, non-profit corporation to solicit, receive, and maintain funds to use and apply specifically to the restoration of the Mission San Jose. When major rehabilitation and maintenance projects exceed the available funds, this committee strives to support the needs of the Mission through fund-raising and coordinating volunteers.
