Programs and results

What we aim to solve

SOURCE: Self-reported by organization

Our 2023 goals were to begin a capital campaign, and to host more in-person programs in our facility and in other venues. With the unexpected death of the building's owner, and the property's transfer, we had to vacate the premises. Our 2024 goal has been to regroup and to find a suitable and permanent facility.

Charting impact

Four powerful questions that require reflection about what really matters - results.

We:

*Honor Military Families *Preserve their Legacies *Share their Stories *Educate the Public

Due to changed circumstances, MAMF is reorganizing and developing new short and long-term plans. MAMF continues to digitize its collections of photographs and documents and to develop programs, create imaginative exhibits and publish anthologies which invite further community involvement and thoughtful dialog. MAMF is collaborating on several large-scale programs in Germany to be completed in Winter 2024-Spring 2025.

MAMF collaborates with national, state, and local individuals and organizations on diverse projects. MAMF is has rebuilt its board and has created action teams. It hired a part-time museum manager . MAMF continues to produce quality work, improve its processes, and seeks its permanent location.

As a small non-profit with an impressive track record, and an affinity for collaborating, MAMF feels confident that it is on the right track. MAMF's board of directors is energized and engaged.

MAMF received several arts and humanities grants for past and future projects. MAMF published five anthologies in 2021-2023 which provide a small but steady income for the museum. The Board has broken into small teams and is working on several priorities for MAMF: location, development, marketing.
