About the Youth Education Fund

This giving season, the Museum is raising money to support our Youth Education Fund.

The National Civil Rights Museum is an educational institution that is committed to telling the story of the ongoing struggle for civil and human rights. The Youth Education Fund allows us to invest in that educational programming and ensure that it is accessible to any child, anywhere, regardless of ability to pay.
Your donation supports K-12 Educational Programming, keeps field trips accessible for schools that can't afford it, invests in technology and digitization to expand the Museum's reach, and funds Research & Scholarship for our educators to keep our curricula up to date and relevant.

We hope you'll be a part of matching his generosity to Move History Forward, one child at a time.

Much Required logo by Jaren Jackson, Jr.

The National Civil Rights Museum is excited and honored to be partnering this giving season with Memphis Grizzlies star Jaren Jackson, Jr.

"This all started with my Grandmother, Eva Carmichael, who constantly reminds me, 'To whom much is given,
much is required', and I've taken that to heart. It's how I want to live my life and honor how my Grandmother lives hers.”

Jaren carries these words off the court and into the Memphis community in all of his philanthropic efforts, in which he is intentional about how he gives back. He understands that he is in a position to bridge the gap in access to many, while utilizing his platform to uplift and celebrate the community.
