Non-Cash Donations
Museo de los Santos will consider non-cash donations.
Donations to date have ranged from antique santos and art to real estate.
Primary consideration will be given to santos or related articles which will enhance our collection.
If santos are damaged, we have experts on restoration - so don't hesitate to contact us if your santo is not in perfect condition.
Other donations such as real estate, stocks, bonds, art, museum display cases, professional services, etc. are also welcome if they can add to fundraising efforts or an endowment to ensure the operations of our museum for future generations. You must be able to verify ownership, transferability and donate the equivalent of any closing or acquisition costs.
If you have a non-cash item which you would like to donate, please contact Richard Holm at info@museodelossantos.org with as much information and/or photos as possible.
Note: it is customary for the person making a donation to assign a value to their gift for tax purposes. Due to the very specific nature of antique 'santos' and related artifacts, the museum can provide an estimated retail value on request.
