Dear Thank you for taking your valuable time to review our Joseph Brant Museum Expansion and Renovation fundraising Campaign Presentation. For nearly 30 years, the need to improve the Museum facility has been recognized and well documented, but it always seemed to be that the timing was not right. Today, we believe that our dream can become a reality with the transformation of Joseph Brant Museum into Burlington’s Community Museum & Heritage Centre to create a new concept and a new experience. We have an approved strategic plan and budget from the City of Burlington Council and staff; we have letters of support from all levels of government including Mayor Rick Goldring, Mike Wallace MP and Jane McKenna MPP, as well as endorsements from Tourism Burlington, Burlington Art Centre, heritage organizations and local business entrepreneurs. As a respected community-minded benefactor, we trust that you will see the huge cultural, educational and financial benefits that this expansion can bring to the citizens of Burlington. On behalf of the Burlington Museums Foundation, I invite you to consider becoming a generous leadership donor to the Campaign for the Renovation and Expansion of Joseph Brant Museum. Thank you.
