Year End Giving 2023: One Dream, Many Hands
The Mississippi Children’s Museum invites you to take part in our Year-End Giving Campaign, where every contribution is a gift to Mississippi’s future! This year’s slogan, “One Dream, Many Hands” reflects the many donors, supporters, and volunteers needed to make the museum’s dreams come true.
Excellence always comes at a price, and we rely on the generous support of our donors to help offset this cost. Because of your giving, we are able to ensure that every child in Mississippi has access to the museum’s enriching experiences by providing subsidized admissions.
Financial giving isn’t the only way to show your support! Explore all the ways in which you can help our dreams come to life…

MISSISSIPPI CHILDREN’S MUSEUM
The Mississippi Children’s Museum (MCM) is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization with a mission of creating unparalleled experiences to inspire excellence and a lifelong joy of learning in all children. The 53,000-square foot museum is designed around five primary initiatives, with correlating exhibits, programs, and outreach efforts. These initiatives include: Literacy, STEAM, Health and Nutrition, Cultural Arts, and Mississippi Heritage – the keys to helping our children mature into healthy and productive adult learners. In response to community needs due to the COVID-19 pandemic, MCM shifted operating and programming priorities to best serve Mississippi’s children and combat learning loss through facilitating virtual schooling and creating online educational enrichment – services that continue today through a robust, daily afterschool program and an online platform for teacher professional development.
In 2021, MCM celebrated a monumental year by receiving an Institute of Museum and Library Services National Medal, the nation’s highest honor for museums, and through opening its first satellite museum, MCM-Meridian, which received the 2021 Governor’s Award for Travel Attraction of the Year.
