The National Medal of Honor Museum being built in Arlington announced recent gifts totaling $3 million this week from the Texas Lottery Commission and Anheuser-Busch.
The museum said the $2 million donation from the Texas Lottery Commission is a multi-year naming rights sponsorship that will support two programs -- the Museum's Texas student field trip program and Texas active-duty military program.
"We are profoundly grateful to the Texas Lottery Commission for their generous commitment and partnership. Inspiring current and future generations to live and lead with honor by telling the stories and preserving the legacies of our nation's greatest heroes has always been at the core of our mission," said museum President and CEO Chris Cassidy.
“For as long as there has been a Medal of Honor, Anheuser-Busch has been making a positive impact in their communities. Their generosity will help preserve the legacies of Medal of Honor recipients and inspire the next generation of Americans with their stories of leadership, courage, selflessness and love of country. We are deeply grateful for their support of our mission, and I enjoyed spending time with their team in St. Louis,” Cassidy said.
