It helps build a sense of history and belonging when an organization can share the accomplishments of past members.

Many libraries feature a section of local authors. Colleges often highlight the awards or publications of their faculty. Businesses may showcase the patents or innovations of their designers. Athletic facilities create hall of fames. Galleries add works by regional artists to their permanent collections.

In a unique twist, Notre Dame University curated a collection of alumni products by featuring a display of wines that are “part of the Notre Dame family.”

Consider whether your organization could recognize a group of members, leaders, or even customers with a display that highlights their contributions to your legacy. Doing so may inspire the next generation to contribute.
