About the Friends of Missouri State Archives

Purpose

The purpose of the Friends of the Missouri State Archives is to render support and assistance to the Missouri State Archives, which was created in 1965 as a division of the Office of the Secretary of State and is the official repository for government records of permanent value. Its mission is to foster an appreciation of Missouri history and illuminate contemporary public issues by preserving and making available the state’s permanent records to its citizens and their government.

The Friends is a not-for-profit corporation, tax exempt under Section 501 (c) of the Internal Revenue Code, and is supported by memberships and gifts.
