Donate an Artifact
The Museum’s collection is built on the generosity of supporters who have contributed artifacts that share the history of Historic Hangar #1, NAS Wildwood, and the men and women who served here. We collect artifacts and materials that represent the history of Naval Air Station Wildwood, southern New Jersey’s war- and home-front effort, the surrounding community, and the post-war history of Historic Hangar #1. We are also seeking military aviation materials—from aircraft components and vehicles to an aviator’s wings—as well as personal accounts connected to items in our collection. These donations assist us in educating our guests and preserving the stories tied to this historic site.
Museum staff are currently working to expand our exhibits on women in the military, and there is also a need for display cases to support a variety of exhibitions. If you are unsure whether your items fall within these categories, please reach out to Chet Rietheimer at 609-886-8787 or HangarChet.NASW@gmail.com.
Planned Giving
Did you know more than 70% of Americans give to non-profits during their lifetime, but less than 8% continue that legacy through their will or a charitable trust? Planned giving allows you, with the guidance of professional advisors, to designate the Naval Air Station Wildwood Aviation Museum as a beneficiary in your estate planning. This ensures your support continues to protect and share our history for years to come.
If you would like to learn more about planned giving opportunities, please call us at 609-886-8787 or email AviationMuseum@Comcast.net.
All donations are tax-deductible to the fullest extent of the law.
