Hello,

I am curious if any museums have a donation box (either in the museum, at the exit or somewhere else) where people can drop an additional amount of $ towards programs at the museum.  Have you had any issues with these boxes?  Did you find it worked well?  Did you ever have one broken in to or money stolen?  Do you think this is a standard that guests are comfortable seeing?

I would like to add one on our museum floor as have a statement saying "If you are enjoying your time and wish to help the museum continue with educational programs and enhancements, please consider donating" or something like this.

I appreciate your assistance!

We have donation boxes at several locations. One at the admission desk (no charge to our grounds so we encourage visitors to contribute); another in our parking lot, at exit to our mansion and in our bird banding station. We do get donations however not great amounts. We have made the boxes out of metal with a lock and have not had any vandalism. When we have events where we do not charge admission we normally have a donation box on the entrance table and the refreshment table. At times we have made more $ when we say admission by donation. All boxes have a sign basically indicating funds support the ongoing programs of the site.

Hope that helps
