The “Help Fuel Our Field Trips” campaign supports the American Heritage Museum’s School Field Trip Grant Fund, which provides critical funding for transportation and admission for financially challenged schools across the region.
Now through July 31st, your gift goes twice as far
Thanks to a generous $25,000 matching challenge — every dollar you give is doubled, helping twice as many students experience the power of immersive, hands-on history education.
Field trips to the American Heritage Museum aren’t just exciting days out — they’re transformational learning experiences. Designed to align with the Massachusetts History and Social Science Curriculum Framework, our exhibits take students on a powerful journey through American and world history — from the Revolutionary War to modern conflicts — through authentic artifacts, detailed dioramas, and compelling personal stories. Additionally, our recently added interpretive exhibits on the Holocaust teach about past genocides and other atrocity crimes illustrates the dangers of antisemitism, racism, and all forms of discrimination and dehumanization.
For many students, especially those from under-resourced schools, these visits offer a rare and meaningful connection to the past — the kind of experiential learning that inspires empathy, critical thinking, and a lifelong appreciation for history.
With your support, we can ensure that every student, regardless of background, has the opportunity to step into history and explore the events, people, and ideas that shaped the world we live in today.
Use the options below to give today and double your impact — help us reach our $25,000 summer goal and fuel the future of history education!
