Donating

SFO Museum welcomes donations to the Aviation Museum and Library collection. Receiving donations of materials related to commercial aviation is an important means for the Museum to meet our goal of preserving and sharing the history of flight with present and future generations. It ensures that historic objects, literary works, and archival materials receive a commitment of professional stewardship and technical support to promote their longevity for the public benefit. Donations accepted into the collection are reviewed by curators, cataloged by registrars, and inspected by conservators with treatment provided accordingly. Donations are tax deductible as charitable contributions. Donation drop-offs are by appointment only.

We humbly ask that offers to donate cash or checks be directed to the San Francisco Aeronautical Society, our support affiliate. Please visit their website for information on how to make donations: sfaero.org
