WASP Endowment Fund

Secure the Future of the WASP Legacy – Support Our Endowment Fund

The Official National WASP WWII Museum is dedicated to preserving the inspiring history of the Women Airforce Service Pilots (WASP). To safeguard this mission for future generations, we have established the Endowment Fund—a long-term financial resource with a goal of raising $20 million.
The Endowment Fund of the Official National WASP WWII Museum is a long-term investment in the preservation of WASP history. Unlike traditional donations that are used for immediate needs, contributions to the Endowment Fund are invested, with only a portion of the earnings used to support the museum’s operations. This ensures that the museum remains financially stable for generations to come—no matter economic shifts or funding challenges.

Why Your Support Matters

By contributing to the Endowment Fund, you help ensure the Museum’s financial stability, allowing us to continue honoring the WASP, educating the public, and maintaining our historic aircraft and exhibits. Unlike traditional donations, an endowment provides ongoing funding, with the principal investment remaining intact while its earnings support the Museum’s operations and programs.

How the Endowment Fund Works

  • Long-Term Financial Stability: Your donation becomes part of a permanent investment, with only the generated earnings used to fund operations.

  • Resilience Against Economic Uncertainty: The Endowment Fund provides a safeguard against fluctuations in the economy and changes in political policy.

  • Sustaining Education & Preservation Efforts: From maintaining historic warbirds to expanding educational outreach, your support enables us to inspire future generations with the WASP story.

Ways to Give

Your contribution to the Endowment Fund helps secure the future of the National WASP WWII Museum. Whether through one-time donations, planned giving, or corporate sponsorships, every gift strengthens our ability to preserve and share this vital history.

Join us in ensuring that the courage and contributions of the WASP continue to inspire for generations to come.
