week 4 Acquisition

While developing this collection, I might need lunch money to meet with adoptees, coffee, gas money to meet with adoptees, money for archiving materials. Whose money? I would ideally get some grants or crowdsourcing funding.
I will collect by contacting adoptees and seeing which objects or documents they would like to donate. I will document by photographing objects and photocopying the documents and digitally organizing. I would eventually like to do oral histories.
