Donations

We invite you to share a monetary gift to support the ongoing work at the Tripp Museum and Research Center.  It is a place where special programs are offered to the community and to school groups that visit throughout the year.  Also, we assist those researching their ancestors with genealogy and historical community information.

In addition, we oversee and maintain two country churches, the Salem Ragatz and Our Lady of Loretto churches. They are available to rent for weddings and special events.

This year, our greatest need is raising money to replace the Tripp Museum’s roof within the next five years.  The most recent bid projects a $25,000 to $30,000 price tag. Therefore it is necessary to start fundraising now to have the finances available to pay for the roof when it is replaced.

Will you consider being part of preserving our Sauk Prairie History and making a donation?
