Honoring A Legacy
After Pat Wand’s untimely passing in May of 2023, the Museum created the Pat Wand Memorial Fund for friends, family and others to honor Pat and support our work during this critical period of growth. Over 50 donors have contributed a total of $13,533 to date.
Pat’s incredible service to the Peace Corps community and the Museum was unwavering. And Pat’s support for the Museum continued beyond her passing when she bequeathed over $58,000 to support operations. If you too would like to explore legacy giving, please reach out to us at info@peacecorpsmuseum.org.
