A MUSEUM IN PROGRESS

Help Us Complete the National Museum of American Diplomacy

The National Museum of American Diplomacy (NMAD) is grateful to our donors who have given so generously to complete Phase One of our Capital Campaign. NMAD and its non-profit partner, the Diplomacy Center Foundation (DCF) are now focused on Phase Two of the campaign to raise an additional $35 million to complete construction, exhibit design, fabrication, and installation for the museum. Your support, no matter how large or small, helps honor the contributions of the American diplomatic community and preserve the legacy of American diplomatic leadership for generations.
