Every donation supports our annual fund. The gift you give today will positively impact a child for a lifetime.
We accept cash, checks, and major credit cards. We also welcome all gifts of stock, real estate, planned giving and in-kind donations. Payment can be made as a one-time gift, or you can really keep a love of learning alive with monthly, quarterly, or annual installments.
To donate by check, please mail to 116 Orange Street, Wilmington, NC 28401.
Other ways to give
Your donation will expand the Museum’s impact on children in the community. Our donors help us maintain and grow our early childhood education services and programming in southeastern North Carolina. Together we are helping children learn and grow.
Invite Your Office to Help
You can designate the Museum for your company’s annual employee giving program, or you can make your gift go twice as far with an employer matching gift. Please ask your place of employment if they offer these programs, or contact us to assist you.
Gifting Stock benefits everyone. You can deduct the full current value of the stock and the Museum can sell the stock with no capital gains taxes. In short, you can make a larger gift at a lower cost.
Make a qualified charitable distribution (QCD) from an IRA and receive a tax break if you meet the IRS guidelines reducing your taxable income. If you are subject to a Required Minimum Distribution (RMD), an IRA gift is an easy way to support the Museum and fulfill those requirements.
Legacy Gifts foster the future by naming the Museum as the beneficiary of your life insurance policy, in your will, trust or general estate plans. Make an impact that lasts for generations to come.
