Members of The Better Angels Society believe in the power of outstanding American history documentaries to illuminate the stories of our shared past and connect people in exploring them. Members play a vital role in ensuring the Society can sustain and grow its support for films and programs that advance civic engagement, educate students and lifelong learners, and build the next generations of documentary filmmakers. Your support makes this important work possible.

Become a member simply by joining our mailing list for exciting updates on our programs and the award-winning films we support. For those able to financially support our work, annual memberships start at $1,000 and come with fantastic benefits, including tickets to premieres and other exclusive events, behind-the-scenes updates from renowned filmmakers, and reserved seats at the prestigious Library of Congress Lavine/Ken Burns Prize for Film.

It’s the perfect membership (or gift) for any history or documentary film lover.

Not ready for an annual membership but still want to support The Better Angels Society? We welcome all gifts, including one-time or monthly donations at any level.

If you are interested in paying your membership monthly or making a restricted donation to a specific documentary film, please contact Rebecca Daniels, Senior Director of Operations and Stewardship at rdaniels@betterangelssociety.org.
