1923 Society FAQ
The 1923 Society recognizes annual giving of $1,000 or more to the Air Force Museum Foundation.
Do Society members receive Friends Program benefits?
Yes. Membership includes all Friends Program benefits, including the printed and digital Friends Journal. Printed copies require a U.S. mailing address. Eligible donors receive a link and access instructions by email when each digital issue is available.
How will I hear about my benefits?
Most benefit updates arrive by email. Please sign up for Foundation emails and keep your email address current. Send updates to friends@afmuseum.com or call 937-751-1587.
How is my giving level determined?
We add together all gifts received during the calendar year, whether you give once, monthly, or several times. Your total annual giving determines your benefits for the following year.
Will I still receive renewal reminders?
Yes. We’ll send a reminder near the anniversary of your last gift, along with occasional opportunities to give or move to a higher level.
How do monthly gifts count toward my benefits?
Your monthly gifts count as they are received. The amount you give during the calendar year determines your benefits for the following year.
Are my gifts tax-deductible?
Gifts to the Air Force Museum Foundation, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, are tax-deductible to the extent permitted by law. The fair market value of benefits received may reduce your deduction. Consult your tax advisor.
Can I give in honor or memory of someone?
Yes. Tribute and memorial gifts are welcome. Contact the Foundation for help with acknowledgments.
