Membership/1775 Society
The National Infantry Museum and Soldier Center is the largest privately funded and operated military museum in the country. It was the National Infantry Foundation’s responsibility to raise the money to build the museum, and it is the Foundation’s responsibility to fund operating expenses.
By joining the 1775 Society, you pledge to pay annual dues which offer significant financial help to the Foundation in running the museum and continuing the mission: honoring the service and sacrifice of our Soldiers – past, present and future. Members of the 1775 Society care deeply about this mission. They know they are directly responsible for the success of this world-renowned facility. American Soldiers walk through the museum every day and know they are honored and appreciated. The 1775 Society is an important piece in making this happen.
In addition to providing financial support to the museum, the 1775 Society hosts the annual black-tie gala each summer. This unique event is the museum’s signature fundraiser. Guests enjoy an evening of fine dining, entertainment, music and dancing. A silent auction with some exotic offerings is a fun part of the night.
