The Aurora Museum Foundation is the only private, citizen-based organization whose sole purpose is to provide financial assistance to the Aurora History Museum.  It is made up of people who care about what the Aurora History Museum means to the community—as a keeper of Aurora’s cultural heritage, as a learning place through exhibitions and programs for adults and children, and as a cultural amenity for the Aurora region that reflects the human values that make a community a place worth living in. Because it has virtually zero overhead, your financial gifts have total impact on those programs and events that you support.  They are not a substitute for public financing (although they certainly supplement restricted public funding in these times), but enable the Museum to reach out and innovate in its mission to enhance the lives of Museum program participants (such as children in Aurora and Cherry Creek schools) and the general  character of life in Aurora.
