Meryl Streep’s seven-figure gift is bringing women’s history to classrooms

Meryl Streep has made a seven-figure gift to the National Women’s History Museum as the institution prepares to expand how women’s stories are taught and shared across the United States. The donation will support digital projects designed to take historical material beyond a traditional museum setting, including resources that can be used in classrooms and accessed through online platforms. Streep has been a supporter of the museum making the contribution part of a longer association with its work. The museum is also establishing an annual educator award in her name, with the first recipient due to be recognised in November 2026.
