The Smart Car Raffle is the first of many initiatives that the Board of Directors will use to meet the challenge grant offered by the Paul Ogle Foundation. The Board is embarking on a Capital Campaign—Phase I with a goal of $1,000,000.00 to be raised by December 31, 2009.

The Ogle Foundation has offered a $500,000.00 Challenge Grant to the Museum. The focus of Phase I of the Capital Campaign is to provide funding for a fire suppression system and an upgraded fire detection system, as well as climate control (new heating, ventilation, & air conditioning) for the Mansion. Corporate, business, and individual donations as well as grants will be pursued to match this very generous offer by the Ogle Foundation.
