Information on how you can support the mission of the Tretter Collection through your material and financial gifts.
Your contributions
The Tretter Collection would not exist without contributions from many individuals, organizations, and collectives. There are many ways to contribute! You can donate materials for inclusion in our collections, participate in oral history projects, attend events, volunteer, or make a financial gift to support the long term sustainability of our work.
Donate materials
Interested in possibly donating materials to the collection? Contact the collection's curator (email: tretter@umn.edu). We'll be happy to work with you to determine whether and how your collection might fit within ours. (We collect a wide variety of materials and formats, including paper materials, audiovisual materials, email, and digital files.) In the meanwhile, if you're interested learning more about what's involved in the process, you may wish to read "Donating Your Personal or Family Records to a Repository" (available on the website of the Society of American Archivists).
