“Let’s Make It Happen” Matching Donation Drive 2024 – June 1 – August 1, 2024
June 1 marks the first day of the Maturango Museum’s Matching Donation Drive and Membership Drive. Generous benefactors have pledged to match $25,000 toward the Matching Donation Drive. Now, it is your turn to double your donation to support the Maturango Museum! Help us reach our goal of $50,000 in our summer appeal that ends August 1, 2024.
The Maturango Museum is a non-profit organization that receives no funding from city, county, state, or federal sources. Instead, it relies on donations from individuals like you. Please take this opportunity to double your impact!
