Artifact Donations
If you are considering donating any items to the society,
please contact us before
bringing or sending any material to the society.
We consider several issues when evaluating a donation:
- Does the item(s) support the Society's mission?
- What is the relationship of
the item(s) to the Town of Veteran
- When, how and by whom was the item(s) used?
Unfortunately we cannot accept everything. Limited storage space, duplication of
objects and
condition of the offered piece affect the decision to accept an object.
The Historical Society staff review
each offer.
As a donation is accepted, a "Memorandum of Gift" will
be given to the Donor which
tranfers title of the donation to the Society.
The Historical Society cannot conduct appraisals for tax purposes, nor can we
appraise items
as a service. It is the responsibility of the donor to have the donation
appraised before any item is
donated.
We would be happy to answer any questions you may have about contributing
to
the Society. Please contact any officer.
Memorial
and Honorary Gifts
Memorial and Honorary
gifts are also welcome. You may wish to donate as a friend,
as a business, in honor of or in memory of
a loved one. The name will be recorded
in a log and displayed in the Museum.
