More Ways to Give
Each gift can make an impact today, tomorrow, and for future generations.
Join the museum to support exhibitions, programs, and students each year.
Is my gift tax-deductible?
Yes, gifts are tax-deductible to the extent allowable by law. The WSU Foundation is a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization that is structurally separate from Washington State University and exists solely for WSU’s benefit, serving as the preferred channel for private gifts to all areas of the University. The WSU Foundation’s taxpayer identification number is 91-1075542.
Immediate Impact
If you are looking to make an immediate impact to the museum, consider donating to the Museum of Art Friend’s Fund. This fund supports student salaries for the museum’s student visitor ambassadors, as well as museum operations. For online donations or a check, include in the comments or memo line “Current-use spendable account.”
In Kind Gifts and Gifts of Art
The Jordan Schnitzer Museum of Art at WSU accepts in kind gifts, including gifts of art. As an institution, we are committed to the collection and preservation of artworks which align with our mission and collection policies. Please contact us about gifts in kind.
Buy-A-Bus (BAB)
For nearly a decade the museum has provided transportation reimbursement funding for nearly 300 K-12 grade schools in the Inland Northwest. The Buy-A-Bus program has been revitalized in 2023 after a 3-year hiatus during the COVID-19 Pandemic. Please consider supporting the Buy-A-Bus program to bring the arts back to students across the Inland Northwest.
