The NGEF Vision
Educate Americans and all nationalities about the history of the National Guard. The National Guard Memorial Museum provides an engaging learning experience that promotes greater awareness of America's Citizen Soldiers. Future programming will provide distance learning, lectures and a virtual museum tour.
Present exhibits and tours. The NGEF operates the National Guard Memorial Museum free of charge, five days a week. The NGEF also manages the Medal of Honor Gallery and the National Guard monument in Normandy, France.

Plan for the Future. By ensuring that we have sufficient permanent capital resources to meet anticipated and unexpected financial needs we must add to our existing operating endowment. The NGEF’s endowment investments of $500,000 must triple to meet future needs. Planned gifts in the form of bequests, gifts of appreciated stock and residences are applicable endowment options that will help the NGEF plan for the future.
