Donate a Collection

Prior to shipping any items, please contact the SCCA Foundation Archives Committee Chair, Bob Eddy, listing the intended donation contents. The donor will be contacted by either the Archives Committee Chair, Executive Director or Board Chair to discuss the nature of the donation (e.g., periodicals, documents, trophies, etc.).

Any donated items that members want added to the SCCA Archives must be designated to a specific collection in writing at the time of donation or it becomes part of the general collection belonging to IMRRC.

The SCCA Foundation will work with IMRRC to determine if donated items fit within its overall collection. Subsequently, the SCCA Foundation will advise the donor of items of interest. The donor has two options:

  • Donor can send only items requested by IMRRC, thereby saving shipping costs. 

  • Donor can elect to send all items, alleviating the effort of sorting through items by donor, but increasing cost of shipping.

Note: based on the donated items and the needs of the donor, the Foundation may elect to reimburse the donor for shipping costs. Any agreed to shipping reimbursement must be made in writing in advance of shipping items.

The IMRRC is a 501 (c)(3) charitable organization and will provide the proper paperwork acknowledging receipt of donations. However, the staff is not permitted to determine the value of the items donated.

SCCA members and family are encouraged to donate and preserve SCCA racing memorabilia for future generations through the International Road Racing Research Center (IMRRC) at Watkins Glen.
