Kings Mountain Historical Museum is in the heart of the historic City of Kings Mountain, North Carolina. We collect, preserve, and interpret original historical resources that help foster a deeper understanding of the unique history and cultural identity of Kings Mountain and the surrounding area. As our visitation and museum collections continue to steadily increase, so do our funding needs. We would love for you to be a part of it!

Every September, Kings Mountain Historical Museum hosts a fundraiser to generate revenue necessary to support our programming. The Annual Reverse Raffle & Auctions has been acclaimed the "Best event of the year in Kings Mountain" and this 19th annual fundraiser will be held in-person at the Joy Performance Center. We hope you will join us for this event, held on September 17, 2022. We anticipate a sold-out event with 300 tickets bought by individuals throughout the region, and we offer a Grand Prize of $10,000!

Our annual fundraiser presents an exciting opportunity to invest in the future of our community and to support local history while strategically promoting your business. We offer a variety of high-value promotional opportunities to our event donors. All businesses that donate items for the event will be listed in the evening's program, as well as the Museum's website and social media channels.. Donors will also be recognized in e-blasts and press releases distributed regionally. We ask that you consider showcasing your business while supporting the Museum by making an IN-KIND DONATION such as a gift certificate or merchandise to this year's event. Kings Mountain Historical Museum is a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization (Tax ID#56-1512744); donations are tax deductible to the extent of the law.
