Many people around Kansas City have fond memories of coming to the Kansas City Museum for a grade-school tour or a holiday visit with the Fairy Princess. Others have a special place in their hearts for historic preservation of this grand estate and its wonderful artifacts and collections.

No matter what inspires your fondness for the Kansas City Museum, there is a meaningful way to support the legacy of volunteers and donors in their efforts to preserve the Museum, while at the same time associating yourself and your family with Kansas City’s history.


Making a legacy gift

There are a number of ways you can support the work and collections of the Kansas City Museum through our Friends organization. Through a will, estate plan or life income arrangement, you can make a gift that provides a lasting legacy for the Museum and the community.

Just as those before you have enjoyed the Museum and its lively programs, you can create a gift that ensures future generations will continue to enjoy its benefits. A commitment to Friends of the Museum with a planned gift will help us accomplish our work in the future and, at the same time, may help you achieve your financial goals and accomplish considerable tax savings.

We’ll be delighted to discuss ways to help you arrange a gift that meets your philanthropic and personal financial objectives for current and future estate planning. For more information, please contact Katrina Waldrop Henke by email or by phone at (816) 741-9320.

Membership in the Friends of Kansas City Museum is automatically extended to those who make a planned gift.
