ColumbusMTGives returns May 4 through May 10, 2026, offering a fine opportunity to support the Museum of the Beartooths and amplify your impact through community matching funds.

Hosted by the Columbus Community Foundation, ColumbusMTGives pools matching dollars that are distributed proportionally among participating nonprofits. This means that every gift to the Museum goes even further. For example, if the Museum receives 50% of the total donations raised during the campaign, we will receive our full donation total plus 50% of the available matching funds.

Giving is simple. Visit www.columbusmtgives.org to find the Museum of the Beartooths listed among participating organizations. There, you can make a secure online donation and learn more about how your support helps us preserve and share the history of Stillwater County.

If you prefer to give by check, please make it payable to Museum of the Beartooths and write “ColumbusMTGives” in the memo line. This is essential to ensure your gift is counted toward our campaign total. Checks can be dropped off at the Museum Tuesday through Friday, 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., or mailed to:

PO Box 1
Columbus, MT 59019

You can also help by spreading the word. Encourage friends and family to visit www.columbusmtgives.org, share why you support the Museum, and invite others to join you in giving.

Every contribution, with a minimum donation of $10, makes a meaningful difference. Your generosity sustains exhibits, educational programs, and the preservation of our shared heritage.

We look forward to celebrating what we can accomplish together during ColumbusMTGives 2026.
