Without the financial contributions of these major gifts, the Core Sound Waterfowl Museum & Heritage would have remained only a dream. Our thanks to those who have given generously over the years, and to those who continue to give as we move forward now in building an institution.
Our thanks to these agencies, organizations, families and individuals who have made the CONSTRUCTION of the Core Sound Waterfowl Museum & Heritage Center a reality for Eastern North Carolina.
