Museum Donations

Donations have always been important to the Museum, but the challenges wrought by COVID have made them increasingly vital. Our principal business model relies on some 94% of general operating revenue coming through admissions, the achievement of which has been significantly challenged by forced closures, new social distancing protocols and site capacity limits.

All of our donors contribute in different ways, but all of our donors tell us that they value the relationship they have with the Museum and that they are proud to have their name associated with us. They say that they appreciate the quality of what the Museum delivers to our schools and general public.

We gratefully acknowledge the contributions from our supporters for their financial and in-kind donations as well as the sponsors of our special events and exhibits. Our Annual Reports will list all Museum donations regardless of amount.

As well as supporting our operational revenues to maintain business continuity through these difficulties, the support of our donors has enabled the Museum to fund a number of important projects.

Donor-funded Projects

  • Business Continuity Plan 2020
    A team from the Museum's Board of Directors has been reaching out to peers, colleagues and industry connections for donations. We have also successfully applied for Federal Museum Assistance and other government grants.
  • BOOM! - The Mill Experience Show
    A rehabilitation project, designed to share the history and experience of working in the Mill--a National Historic Site--from its construction in 1920 to closure in 1974.
  • The Britannia Project
    A three-phase, $14.7 million revitalization project undertaken in 2010 which furthered the Museum's ability to educate about Canada's role as a leader in sustainable mining and resource development, environmental stewardship, and the history of Britannia Beach.
