The Jack and Dorothy Byrne Foundation has generously pledged a $25,000 matching donation for the American Precision Museum’s Floor 2 The Future Fundraising Campaign. Dorothy Byrne believes in our campaign to create an education and conference center on the second floor of our historic building, and she’s inviting you to join her in making a transformational gift. Gifts received in excess of this matching gift amount will not be matched but will still help make this important project a reality.
Right now is a unique opportunity to double the impact of your gift. Gifts of all sizes make a real difference – and, for now, twice as much! Thank you for joining The Jack and Dorothy Byrne Foundation in supporting APM and the Floor 2 The Future Fundraising Campaign!
The goal of the Floor 2 The Future fundraising campaign is to raise $2,800,000 by December 2026 to renovate and reclaim the second floor of our existing building that is currently being used for storage of pieces from APM’s collection currently not on display. This project will expand APM’s usable space by 45%. It will allow APM to hold educational events, a maker space for hands-on learning opportunities, and a conference center for community and corporate functions.
Floor 2 The Future will allow APM to continue our mission of preserving the history of manufacturing and the machine tool industry, creating partnerships with corporate members and community organizations, and educating and inspiring the next generation of makers and innovators.
These funds will provide APM with the space and the tools for the next 60 years of:
