Friends Program FAQ
The Friends Program recognizes annual giving of $1 to $999 to the Air Force Museum Foundation.
How is Friends Journal delivery changing?
For 2027, donors who gave $30 or more in 2026 receive printed and digital issues. For 2028, $30 or more given in 2027 provides digital access; $50 or more also includes print.
When and how will I receive the Friends Journal?
Printed 2027 issues will be mailed in February, May, August, and November to eligible U.S. donors. The November mailing includes the 2028 calendar. Eligible donors receive a link and access instructions by email when each digital issue is available.
Can I receive the printed Journal outside the United States?
Printed copies are available only to donors with a U.S. mailing address. Eligible donors outside the United States can access the digital Journal.
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.
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.
