Ford
has agreed to donate $1 million to the Smithsonian National Museum of African
American History and Culture in celebration of its richness and diversity of
the African American experience. This donation builds on its long support of
African-Americans and its 40-year relationship with the Smithsonian
institution. This donation will support the museum’s capital campaign and will
go towards funding key programs when the museum opens the National Mall in
Washingston D.C. in two years. Jim Vella, Presiden of Ford Motor Company Fund
and Community Services said, “Since Henry Ford’s groundbreaking $5 a day wage
in 1913, which paid people equally regardless of race, Ford has invested in
programs that empower and celebrate the African American community. Ford is proud
to work with the Smithsonian on this museum that will recognize the tremendous
contributions of African Americans to our country and our world.”
