1.  Audio-Visual Equipment

$10,000

To continue our series of educational lectures, workshops, and film showings, we need presentation equipment. Specifically, a multimedia projector would enhance our ability to show films as well as present lectures and educational material. Amplification hardware would reduce our costs when putting on musical events. 

2. Office equipment

$5,000

For educational events and promotion of cultural events there is a need for photocopied materials. A photocopier, scanner and overhead projector would enable us to undertake these events at a greatly-reduced cost.

3. Running costs

$15,000 per month

$60,000 needed by the end of this year

Lighting and heating the building, as well as undertaking occasional repairs to the fabric of the structure are a significant cost. In addition, there are some staff costs which are essential. Donors can also sponsor a day, week, or month of the museum’s existence. We are totally reliant on private assistance for this, as foundations are normally unwilling to cover such costs.

We would also like to point out that donations of time and services are equally valuable – if there is any way in which you think you can help, please get in touch with me: chris@galiciajewishmuseum.org
