Quarterly changing exhibits with related programming add to the robust schedule of mission driven programs. (3)Future sustainability of the museum programs and its 4.5 acre campus and 3 buildings is now protected with the creation of an endowment fund (2015) seeded by a challenge grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities and further expanded by new institutional focus.

At its founding in 1991, the Museum was not a collecting institution but since then, through a steady process of acquiring gifts, bequests, and purchases, the Museum's collection now has approximately 2,000 items. While the primary scope of the collection is focused on the civil rights struggle during the 1950s and 1960s, the artifacts, oral histories, films, and interactive media, guide visitors through five centuries of American history spanning from slavery through the passing of the 1964 Civil Rights Act. The permanent collection also comprises of the court documents in the criminal case against James Earl Ray, the alleged assassin of Dr. King. In addition the Museum has an education collection and an institutional history collection. The education collection contains artifacts used as teaching tools for hands-on learning in programs and workshops. Each of the items is cataloged, preserved, and cared for, and activities verifying their existence and assessing their condition are performed continuously. The collections are subject to a policy that requires proceeds from their sales to be used to acquire other items for collection. Collection items acquired either through purchase or donation are not capitalized. Purchases of collection items are recorded as decreases in unrestricted net assets if purchased with unrestricted assets and as decreases in temporarily restricted net assets if purchased with donor-restricted assets. Contributions of collection items are not recognized in the statements of activities. Proceeds from insurance recoveries are reflected as increases in the appropriate net asset classes. During the year ended June 30, 2017, a collection of photographs depicting the Movement with a fair value of $1,900,000 was donated to the Foundation. The contribution of the photographs is not reflected in the accompanying financial statements since the Foundation does not capitalize collections. Part V, Line 4: the endowment fund is set up to manage endowment gifts and to distribute the income to the museum for general operations and programs to promote the mission of the museum. THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND STAFF ADOPTED A SPENDING POLICY EFFECTIVE 7/1/2016 WITH RESPECT TO THE APPROPRIATION OF THE RETURNS FROM THESE ASSETS FOR EXPENDITURE.
