250 for 250: Help Preserve Veteran Stories for America’s 250th Anniversary

As America prepares to celebrate its 250th Anniversary, we invite you to join a special movement that honors the people who helped protect the freedoms we celebrate.

The Mid America Veterans Museum is launching our 250 for 250 Campaign, with a goal of welcoming 250 new Friends of the Museum, each contributing $250 annually, in honor of our nation's 250 years of history.

Every veteran has a story worth preserving. Every artifact has a lesson to teach. Every visitor who walks through our doors has the opportunity to better understand the sacrifices that have shaped our nation.

Your support helps make that possible.
