The Swedish Historical Society of Rockford, established in 1938, is dedicated to celebrating Swedish culture past, present, and future through the preservation of Swedish-American history and Nordic culture in Rockford. The Society operates the Erlander Home Museum and Nordic Cultural Center, offering educational programs, museum displays, and events to connect generations locally and globally.

With a focus on historical, educational, and charitable purposes, the Society aims to honor the journey of Swedish immigrants who came to Rockford seeking fortune, freedom, and adventure in the 19th century. The Erlander Home Museum, the heart of the Society, is in need of support to address basement condensation issues and preserve its foundation for future generations.
