Donor Opportunities
EXPLORE….CREATE…. COLLABORATE!
Your gift toward the Annual Fund allows kidscommons, columbus’ community children’s museum, to further its mission to be “…a fun, safe, and inviting place that nurtures exploration, collaboration, and creativity for all children and their caregivers; a place to learn about our community and our world.” – from our Mission statement.
Kidscommons is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization. We do not receive monies from city, county, or state funds, nor any tax appropriations. Over 52% of our operating funds come from earned income, while the other 48% must come from our annual Carnivale fundraising event, foundation gifts, successful grant proposals…AND YOU!
Your donation provides area families and community visitors a fun place to play and learn while they explore our interactive, hands-on exhibits. By supporting kidscommons you allow us to continue our commitment to the economic health of our downtown and this community with outstanding exhibits and school outreach programs for Pre-school through sixth grade. You also enable us to create new programs, activities, and exhibits for future growth.
