The AACHM is a nonprofit 501c3 organization. Event proceeds and donations will support the museum's educational and enrichment programs, its capital campaign and its endowment with the Ann Arbor Area Community Foundation.
The AACHM has been chosen to participate in an inaugural initiative by the Smithsonian National Museum of African American History and Culture and the American Association for State and Local History to connect African American museums across the U.S. The process was competitive and the AACHM was one of seven museums selected.
