Giving

Museum of Anthropological Archaeology Funds provides critical resources to support undergraduate and graduate research and other scholarly and professional activities of the Museum. This document summarizes the 12 current gift and endowment funds that are based in the Museum. The majority of the Museum’s fundraising efforts to date have been dedicated to the support of undergraduate and graduate students, and particularly to assist students to conduct field and laboratory research. This remains an important commitment of the Museum, and we are eager to expand all of these funds to help even more students gain firsthand experiences of the excitement and challenges of archaeological research. Along with our educational commitment, the Museum is also committed to the responsible care, documentation, and dissemination of information of the more than four million archaeological and ethnographic artifacts that we curate. We are eager to develop endowment support that will aid us in our mission.

Please consider making a gift to the University of Michigan Museum of Anthropological Archaeology. For additional information on giving to the Museum, please contact Director Michael L. Galaty.
