Australian Museum Foundation

Donations to the Foundation enable us to continue our scientific research, education programs and enrich our collections.

Led by a team of eleven Trustees the Foundation is an independent legal entity, the purpose of which is to raise funds for the Australian Museum.

Some projects supported by the Foundation include:

• groundbreaking scientific research expeditions
• the purchase of specialised scientific equipment
• the restoration of heritage Museum displays
• conservation of archival material
• the acquisition and commission of artworks by contemporary Indigenous and Torres Strait Islander artists
• a digitisation program for the Museum’s 18 million collections
• the development of an Indigenous learning hub
• the implementation of a youth development program for Pacific communities, using the Museum’s cultural collections

Our 2012 Newsletter includes detailed information on these and other projects.

Your help will make a difference and ensure the Australian Museum can continue to explore questions of science and culture.
