Dear Supporters,
We are embarking on our fall season of new displays at the Michigan Heroes Museum, and we need your help. Our goal is to raise $30,000 to create up to 20 new displays that will appropriately Honor, Respect, and Remember the service of Michigan's military and space heroes. These displays will provide an immersive and educational experience, showcasing the bravery and sacrifices of the men and women who have served our nation.
The funds will cover the costs of essential materials such as mannequins, riker mounts, photo reproductions and enlargements, and photo frames. We will also acquire replacement era-appropriate shirts and ties, and acid-free garment and artifact storage boxes to ensure the long-term preservation of these invaluable items. Moreover, a significant portion of the funds will support the labor-intensive process of researching, interviewing, and composing the compelling stories of these heroes.
From the extraordinary courage of heroes like Ensign Francis C. Flaherty, who sacrificed his life to save his crew at Pearl Harbor, to the valor of Lieutenant Colonel Matt Urban, the most decorated soldier in American history, these displays will celebrate the legacies of Michigan's finest. By contributing to this campaign, you will help us bring these all-new and incredible stories to life, allowing visitors to connect with the rich history of our heroes.
Your generous support will enable us to preserve and present these stories with the respect and dignity they deserve. Please join us in this endeavor to honor our heroes and educate future generations. Together, we can ensure that the legacy of Michigan's heroes continues to inspire.
Thank you for your support.
