Northwoods Children's Museum
Memorial Donations


Memorial donations of $25.00 or more are acknowledged in NCM's "Forever In Our Hearts" memorial area and a card is sent to the bereaved family.  Memorials of $500.00 or more have a 3"x4" photo, dates of birth and passing and a short note about the person.

Using Payments To Make An Affordable Donation
Donations can be spaced out over several months or years in the form of a pledge.  Pledge payments can be made monthly, quarter, twice per year or annually for as many as five years.  Donors can direct their dollars toward a specific project(s) from a list of the museum's most relevant needs or choose to allow the museum to use the museum wherever most needed. The following table illustrates a variety of pledge options;

The museum exists because businesses and individuals dared to believe in an unseen dream.

The dream is now a functioning reality.

The museum will continue to provide hands-on learning and family building programs as long as the people who cared, as well as new people who care, continue to do what they can, when they can to keep on making the "dream" into a rural reality for generations to come.

All memorial donations are acknowledged publicly unless the donor specifically requests anonymity.  Donors are listed in the annual report and on the memorial plaque.
