The Chicago Baseball Museum began as a dream for Dr. David Fletcher. After a successful feasibility study was conducted in 2004, Dr. Fletcher hired a development director to guide the process of the Chicago Baseball Museum from conceptualization and verbal support, to sound backing for a nonprofit organization.
In November 2005 the Chicago Baseball Museum was granted 501(c)(3) nonprofit status. Click here to view the IRS tax status determination letter.
