Inmar Intelligence chief executive David Mounts has made a $2.25 million gift to the Kaleideum museum through his L. David Mounts Foundation, the museum announced.
Elizabeth Dampier, the executive director of the Kaleideum, said that $1.75 million of the Mounts gift is being given outright, but that the remaining $500,000 is a challenge grant: The museum gets the $500,000 from Mounts if Kaleideum can raise another $500,000 from the community.
The county is getting ready to build a permanent home for Kaleideum on the site of the former sheriffâs office building south of Merschel Park in downtown Winston-Salem. Kaleideum is responsible for raising money to pay for the interior displays and exhibits, and thatâs where the Mounts gift comes in.
