America’s Packard Museum: The Legacy In the News

“A Palace Worthy of the Packard...”

“What began as the city’s premier Packard dealership, then lay dormant for decades, is now a center for all things Packard — parts, restoration information and, above all, exceptional examples of the luxury brand.”

— The New York Times

America’s Packard Museum received a $2,000 Greenlight Grant from The Dayton Foundation to install period-correct and environmentally efficient exterior pendant lights in our Franklin Street parking to improve public safety. Completion of the grant will be a major step in fulfilling an ongoing, comprehensive preservation plan that addresses physical improvements, environmental impact, and growth for the educational mission of the Museum.

This project was funded by a grant from the Dr. Khurshid Ahmad Charitable Fund of The Dayton Foundation. For over 100 years, The Dayton Foundation has been the trusted charitable giving resource for more than 4,100 individuals, families and organizations. As the largest grantmaker and community foundation in Greater Dayton, the Foundation has awarded more than $1.4 billion in grants since its founding in 1921, with nearly $109 million awarded last fiscal year. Assets from all funds exceed $1.1 billion. For more information about The Dayton Foundation, visit www.daytonfoundation.org or follow the Foundation on Facebook, X or LinkedIn.

Thank you to our friends at the Dayton Foundation!
