🦴 Honoring the Donors Who Preserve Our Past 🦈
Mace Brown Museum of Natural History × Palmetto Paleontology Museum
The preservation of South Carolina’s incredible fossil record is only possible because of the generosity and support of dedicated donors and supporters.
At the Mace Brown Museum of Natural History and the Palmetto Paleontology Museum, donors play a vital role in protecting fossils, supporting research, and making paleontology accessible to the public. From Megalodon teeth and ancient whales to the stories they tell about our coastal past, these collections exist because people chose to give back to science and education.
Every contribution—whether through fossil donations, financial support, or advocacy—helps ensure that future generations can learn from, study, and be inspired by the natural history beneath our feet.
We are proud to stand alongside institutions like the Mace Brown Museum in celebrating the donors who make preservation, education, and discovery possible.
🦴 Thank you for investing in the past to educate the future.
