Will you be a
Founding Family?

Children’s Museum of Franklin was created off the dream of two determined friends, but that dream needs you.

What you’ll impact

Museum Exhibits

Learning through play: Interactive exhibit spaces will be primarily designed to suit children 0–10 years of age.

Programming

STEAM-focused extracurricular clubs and camps will complement other local offerings and allow for collaborative connections and friendships to prosper.

Student Leadership

Volunteer opportunities allow high school students to learn through leadership.

Additionally, through intentional coordination with area universities, students from a variety of disciplines will have the opportunity to engage in internships and co-ops.

You’ll impact children at every stage of

their educational and social journey.

Your gift is an investment in the future of our community.

Founding Family members commit to an unrestricted donation of $1,000 or more to help us to establish the Children’s Museum of Franklin. Funds may be used for a range of functions from securing a location, to building & renovation, to development and construction of exhibit space and more.

Founding Family donations can be made in full, or in quarterly or monthly increments over a calendar year.

All Founding Family members will be prominently featured on our website and in the entry of our permanent museum space.

Gifts of all sizes and volunteerism are critical to the foundation of the Children’s Museum of Franklin. We are immensely grateful for any contribution you can make.
