Ticket sales and donations contribute to preserving local history, ensuring that future generations will have a physical municipal heritage museum to explore. The Selkirk Heritage Endowment Fund was established in 2012 by the City of Selkirk as a perpetual endowment fund that will support the ongoing operational costs of a new municipal heritage museum. Until a physical museum is created, the fund pays out grants to the Marine Museum of Manitoba and to a dedicated staff person who manages and populates the city’s online museum.
