Just as our diverse audiences depend on the Burke,
we depend on you!

Each year, we rely on loyal friends and supporters to give generously, ensuring that the Burke Museum remains a relevant, accessible resource for students, teachers, scholars, Native and other communities across the State—and far beyond. Your gift to the Burke's annual fund helps us continue to meet their needs.

Gifts to the Burke's annual fund provide key support for:

Matching Gifts
Double — perhaps even triple — the amount of your gift to the Burke at no additional cost to you! Many employers will match charitable contributions made by their employees. Check here to find out if your employer (or your spouse/partner's employer) has a matching gift program.

If your company is eligible, simply request and complete your employer's matching gift form and send it to the Burke Museum along with your contribution.


Divisional Giving
