Make History With Us!

The Campaign for the AFRO Archives at the Upton Mansion

Help us close our $1.1M gap!

Of our $15M total project budget, we have just $1.1M left to raise! Donate $500 or more to get us shovel-ready at the Upton Mansion.

Contributions of $500 or more will be recognized online. Donations of $5,000 or more will be recognized in the building lobby. Individual naming opportunities within the building begin at $50,000. Learn more here.

Special thanks to our GROUNDBREAKERS — founding donors who committed nearly $200k to the project by December 31, 2023.
