EMMA
The Endowment for Mint Museum Acquisitions (EMMA) fund was established in 1985 by the Mint Museum Auxiliary for the sole purpose of acquiring works of art for the Collection Plans of the Mint Museum. These funds are managed by the Foundation For The Carolinas.
While the Auxiliary allocates funds to EMMA annually, community members also use the endowment to make a memorial or an donation to honor Auxiliary members, families and friends.
