The museum’s fundraising page is processing U.S. donations only. crowdfund.alaska.edu/project/22255 International donors that want to support the Bus 142 preservation project, please check back soon! I’ll re-post when the issue is resolved. See our new website at friendsofbus142.com

@CamilaBelendh Same. The reality hits me with mixed emotions but this outcome with the museum will be a positive one.

@TrueCarine So beautiful! I'm glad that it can stay at a safe place
