Wondermakers Circle
By supporting Kidzeum's Annual Fund, you are inspiring today's young dreamers to become tomorrow's changemakers.
The Wondermakers Circle is an annual giving network comprised of passionate community members who believe that every child should be encouraged to wonder, to explore and to pursue their dreams.
Donors who make one-time gifts of $500 or more, or annual donations totaling $500 or more, are awarded membership to the Wondermakers Circle.
Our Wondermakers make an impact on every aspect of our museum and the work we do in our community. From exciting exhibits to a full slate of STEM/STEAM programs for children and their families, to maintaining our facilities and supporting our incredible staff - your contribution as a Wondermaker makes it all possible.
By joining the Wondermakers Circle, you will receive:
- Invitations to invitation-only events
- Early access to special guest meet-and-greets
- Recognition in our annual donor report and lobby donor appreciation video
**Plus, additional perks based on Wondermakers Circle tier.
Make a difference every month!
Monthly giving is automatic, convenient, and allows donors to spread out their giving to make it more manageable. Monthly gifts to Kidzeum create a consistent stream of support that ensures that we can reach more families in our community.
When making a donation through our website, you can choose "Monthly" under the Frequency category. For only $41.67 a month, you can join the Wondermakers Circle! This process is quick, easy, and secure. Your credit card information is protected and never shared with us directly.
Donors who pledge to meet any of the circle giving levels over the course of a year by signing up for automatic monthly payments will be recognized as a Wondermaker!
Members may upgrade their level at any time.
For more information about annual giving or Wondermakers Circle membership and benefits, please contact Kaitlyn Miller at kaitlyn.miller@kidzeum.org or (217) 679-2123.
