Artifact Donation Policies

 

Please read carefully!

 

1. At this time we are not accepting generic military uniforms, as we have quite a few at present.

2. If you wish the artifact to have an engraved plate added to it, please do so before you donate. We will not pay for engraving.

3. Artifacts will be held on temporary loan until the Acquisitions Commitee decides to accept or reject the donation. At this time, if the donation is accepted we will ask you to fill out a Deed of Gift. This means that the artifact becomes property of the Foundation, and they may choose to use the artifact as they deem appropriate. If rejected, it will be returned immediately.

4. Loans are a way of keeping an artifact in your possession, while having it on display at the museum. Loans go through the usual procedures, and if accepted a Short or Long-Term Form will be filled out. If rejected, it will be returned immediately.

5. Please consider adding us to your will or estate. This ensures that your military artifacts will be taken care of properly, and it enhances the quality of the museum.
