Donate items to the National Collection

Donating personal items relating to the Australian experience of war and peacekeeping – such as photographs, letters, and diaries – helps us tell an important part of our national story. Unfortunately, the Memorial is unable to accept all items into the National Collection. A guide is available for those interested in donating material to the Memorial, which includes a checklist and Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs).
