The fund shall be a dedicated fund and, upon appropriation, moneys in this fund shall be used solely for the administration of this section. Notwithstanding the provisions of section 33.080 to the contrary, any moneys remaining in the fund at the end of the biennium shall not revert to the credit of the general revenue fund. The state treasurer shall invest moneys in the fund in the same manner as other funds are invested. Any interest and moneys earned on such investments shall be credited to the fund. The director of the department of revenue shall establish a procedure by which the moneys deposited in the fund shall be distributed at least monthly to the Missouri Historical Society for the purposes of^* funding operations at Soldiers Memorial Military Museum.

The director of revenue shall deposit at least monthly all contributions designated by individuals and corporations under this section, less an amount sufficient to cover the costs of collection and handling by the department of revenue, to the state treasurer for deposit to the fund.
