Support the General Patton Memorial Museum
The General Patton Memorial Museum is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization dedicated to preserving the legacy of General Patton and honoring the men and women who have served and continue to serve our country. Your generosity allows us to continue sharing this important history and expanding our exhibits and programs.
Why Donate?
We are currently raising funds for our
East Wing/Archive Room Restoration Project, which focuses on restoring and updating the original wing of the museum, opened in 1988. The East Wing, home to vital archives and exhibits, is in need of infrastructure improvements. With your support, we aim to enhance the space to match the quality and interpretation of the museum’s West Wing.
Your donation will help us preserve these important historical materials and provide visitors with a deeper understanding of the museum's exhibits.
