no, we don't have such a fund. I have been trying to get our board/members
to consider soliciting funds for such accounts. Marshall Area Historical
Society, of which I am also a member, gets $5000 annually from the Village
w/no questions asked. They were recently awarded $10,000 from the Village's
TIF fund for remodeling and restoration. They now have a new roof
installed, central a/c, and more to come.
We have received money from members who passed away because of their
wills/insurance policies. But have no formal fund established.
