Extra! Extra! Read all about it!
Help save a historic Milwaukee Road Depot in rural Charles City, Iowa! Our museum, the American Passenger Train History Museum, was asked to lead the project to save this relic of the city. We have already raised $150,000 towards this project - But we need your help raising the remaining $200,000! Please donate! We have a local resident who is matching donations up to $100,000, which will get us to $300,000 of our $350,000 goal! You can donate at our website - www.apthm.org - using both PayPal or by mail.
We have until March 31, 2021 to raise the money! Once the money is raised, our museum will move the depot from its current location along the CP railway, south to our museum grounds on the former Charles City Western interurban railway! Once there, we will set it on a basement/foundation and begin restoring the building to be used as our museum headquarters and ground entrance, as well as a trailhead for the Charley Western trail around town, and as community meeting rooms.
Please help us save this beautiful building and preserve a piece of rural America’s and Charles City’s storied past! As part of the American Passenger Train History Museum, the Milwaukee Road Depot will continue to be a community staple for many generation into the future! Donate at https://www.apthm.org/  if you want to help save this historic depot!

King
Amity
Willow
Gus
Lilith
Belos
Kikimora
BOLD OF YOU TO ASSUME I HAVE A REAL LIFE FRIEND GROUP, ANON-
Anyway, I'll do the cult. This seems fun. There's also repeats because these children are insane
Luz - @aquilaboid (chosen one things)
Eda - @lilithclawthrone (does crime, loves arson) but also @callmemichie
King - @callmemichie , @your-neighbor-bear (smol and a menace) and @lilithclawthrone (they are Satan)
Amity - Me,, (it's only because of the gay panic 😔✌️) but also @aquilaboid (simply because of crush things I shall not say 👀)
Willow - @maskedman06 (voice of reason)
Gus - don't hate me but @adoras-jacket HEAR ME OUT she is a jokester in my eyes and makes me LAUGH and is sUPER POSITIVE
Lilith - @zarieslayer (always sick of our shit)
And I'm skipping Belos and Kikimora because we have positive vibes™️ only in our cult

Donations are also eligible for Jim Smith’s generous $100k match opportunity! What does that mean? Well, if you donate $100 dollars, that means the effort gets $200 - your $100 and $100 of match!
