Statue Donors

Home » Statue Donors

Each statue along the Trail of Governors cost $72,000 to design, sculpt and erect. To help maintain the Trail of Governors and to fund future statues as each governor leaves office, donations of all amounts are accepted. Funds are deposited into a special account with the South Dakota Community Foundation and all donations are tax-deductible. We are grateful to the many individuals and organizations who have made this project a reality, and continue to support it., including the following:
