If you share our passion for the Brass Era and want to get involved, please support the MHC’s Capital Campaign. No gift is too small!

Starting at $25, all donors are recognized on our Donor List appearing on our website and other places where Capital Campaign donors are honored. Depending on level, benefits include membership, invitations to the ground breaking and other events, subscription to MHC quarterly e-newsletter, and more.

How to Support the Campaign:

1) Send a check – Checks may be made out to Museum of the Horseless Carriage and mailed to the following address:

The Museum of the Horseless Carriage
c/o Gilmore Car Museum
6865 W. Hickory Rd.
Hickory Corners, MI  49060

2) Donate Online – Quick and easy, 100% of your donation goes to The Museum of the Horseless Carriage. (If you’d like to contribute a tip to Givebutter, the organization that provides our nonprofit donation software free of charge, that opportunity is also available during check-out.)

3) Donate a Vehicle or Artifact – Add to the MHC’s permanent collection with all appropriate recognition. Please contact Acquisitions/Collections Committee Chair, Jay Follis at (269) 720-9605 or jfollis640@gmail.com for details.

4) Make a Legacy Gift –  Remember the MHC in an estate plan with a gift of cash, securities, retirement assets, or personal property such as a vehicle. A legacy gift is a way to be recognized today for a gift that perpetuates a love for the Brass Era tomorrow.

5) Send a Qualified Charitable Donation (QCD) from an IRA –  If 70 ½ or older, consider donating your required minimum distribution to potentially reduce your tax burden.

6) Be a Sponsor – Get involved with highly visible, one-of-a-kind sponsorship or special project funding that associates your name or logo with a meaningful cause.

7) Volunteer –  Help out on-site or serve as a committee member involved in building and promoting the museum.
