Become a Benefactor
Help us care for and provide access to the fascinating history of Richmond.
The Museum of Richmond is an independent charity which relies on the support of those who treasure our displays, collections and activities.
The Benefactors’ Circle is a group of people who believe firmly in what the Museum represents and seeks to achieve. They want to ensure that as many people as possible, from all backgrounds, can share in our common heritage and experience the unique history of Richmond. Benefactors commit to an annual contribution of £500 to help secure our goals and pursue the future projects that will develop the Museum.
The Museum uses these funds to sustain its vibrant programme of temporary exhibitions, learning workshops and community activities, as well as to pursue its long-term development goals of re-displaying the collection and finding a new and improved museum site.
Benefactors’ Benefits
Benefactors can expect to be:
- Recognised formally on the Museum’s website (unless they choose to remain anonymous)
- Invited to at least two exhibition launches, private views and special events a year
- Sent a copy of the Museum’s annual Impact Report, illustrating the year’s news and achievements
