The Marine Museum of Manitoba has launched its 2024 fundraising campaign for our Heritage Trust Endowment Fund. The museum aims to raise $25,000, which will be matched dollar for dollar, resulting in a total investment of $50,000 into the endowment fund.
This year marks the 50th anniversary of the Marine Museum of Manitoba, which first opened our doors in 1974. As we celebrate five decades of preserving and promoting Manitoba’s rich marine history, we are calling on our community and supporters to help us achieve this significant fundraising milestone.
The “Marine Museum of Manitoba – Heritage Trust Endowment Fund” will provide a secure and stable source of funding for the museum today, tomorrow, and forever and is held and professionally managed by the Winnipeg Foundation. Donations made to the fund are held permanently with the income generated going to the museum each year to support its operations. Each and every donation to this endowment fund leaves a legacy.
