Your annual gift

We are grateful for your financial support of the Western Illinois Museum. Making an annual gift helps us connect our community to our history and those right beside us. Here are some of the ways we do this with your financial support:

• Share our artifacts with school children in their classrooms and offer workshops to area educators on using Primary Sources in their classrooms;
  
• Offer over 75 creative and FUN programs a year that bring people together to engage in lifelong learning;
  
• Actively preserve our history and culture for future generations and share the collection in compelling exhibits;
  
• Restore and repurpose a significant historical building creating a destination for visitors in our downtown;
  
• Offer internships to college students, summer jobs to high school students, and volunteer opportunities that connect people through service.

You can choose a level and frequency that is right for you. Here are a few ideas for an annual gift:

• $25 a year
• $50 a year
• $100 a year

OR set up a monthly gift, such as:

• $5 a month or $60 annually
• $10 a month or $120 annually
• $20 a month or $240 annually
• $25 a month or $300 annually
• $50 a month or $600 annually
• $100 a month or $1,200 annually

Setting up a sustaining gift will automatically charge your credit card and be changed at any time. It's easy, and saves paper and postage! That's a win-win!
