"Catch the Spirit Campaign"

The spirit of preservation
The spirit of telling Muskegon's Industrial Story
The spirit of keeping our history alive

A fundraising campaign to secure the future
of the Muskegon Heritage Association and Our Museum.

To provide for the future of the MHA and the Museum a regular source of funding must be found. One of the best ways is to have an endowment fund which will generate an annual income. The Muskegon Heritage Association has already established an endowment fund at the Community Foundation for Muskegon County.


CAMPAIGN GOAL
Grow the MHA Endowment Fund to $125,000.00
by 2013 to celebrate
the MHA's 40th & the Museum's 30th Anniversaries


Since 1973, the MHA has been promoting preservation in Muskegon and for nearly 30 years has focused on

Muskegon's Industrial Heritage. This is an important story to tell and to pass on to the next generation.

Help secure our future!


HERE'S HOW: Send your donation to the Community Foundation for Muskegon County, 425 W. Western Ave, Muskegon, MI 49440 and it is very important that you write in the memo line of the check, "MHA Endowment Fund".
