Every year, the Colorado Springs Pioneers Museum (CSPM) hosts the Gift of History – our annual fundraiser- to support the museum’s mission to build a lasting connection to the Pikes Peak region by preserving and sharing our cultural history. Our goal was to raise $100,000 by August 31 to support powerful exhibits, innovative programs, and preservation of our object and archival collection at the CSPM.
We have exciting news! Together, we exceeded our goal and raised $111, 482 to support powerful exhibits, innovative programs and the preservation of our artifact and archival collection.
Gift of History Kick Off Week
The CSPM hosted a week of programs to kick off its fundraiser from August 2 – August 6. More than 1,238 visitors explored how the CSPM fulfils its mission to build a lasting connection to the Pikes Peak region by preserving and sharing our cultural history.
