Help Us Build a Place to Play, Learn, and Grow!

Warren County doesn’t have a children’s museum or any hands-on learning space where kids can explore, build, and discover. The McMinnville Children’s Museum is changing that. Since 2024, we’ve brought free, hands-on STEAM learning to local kids through programs like Tinker Take-Out. Now we’re ready for the next big step: a permanent home.

Our goal: $350,000 to secure the land the museum will be built on. Every dollar raised today goes to the MCM Building Endowment.

Join us for the Give-a-Thon!
On Giving Tuesday, December 1, from 8am to 8pm, we’re going live from The Butcher on Main, hosted by Mark Harvey of Origin Socials. Each hour features a local business sponsor who will match up to $500 in donations made during their hour. That means your gift can go twice as far!

Tune in for sponsor spotlights, hands-on science projects, and our favorite game, Stump the Grown-Up. Local kids quiz our sponsors with questions that get harder with every 5 donors. Each wrong answer adds a piece of a Christmas costume: antlers, a Rudolph nose, an ugly sweater, and finally a tinsel wrap!

Every donor counts. Sponsors compete all day for “Sponsor of the Day,” and the leaderboard counts donors, not dollars. A $5 gift matters just as much as a $50 one. GiveButter is also adding 1% to every donation made on December 1.

Thank you for helping us give the kids of Warren County a place to imagine, explore, and grow. We can’t wait to build it together!
