The Smithsonian Campaign for Our Shared Future leverages the Smithsonian’s unique, public-private partnership—an institution by the people, for the people—to build a better shared future. Our shared future.

This $2.5 billion campaign supports four priority areas across the institution, advancing bold ideas and transformative initiatives that reflect the achievements and aspirations of our nation.

As we approach the 250th birthday of the United States, your gift to the campaign becomes a gift to the nation—honoring its founding ideals and investing in its next chapter of innovation, creativity, and optimism.
