MISSION STATEMENT

The primary purpose of this foundation is to provide educational funds to individuals who were denied an education during the school closing in Prince Edward County, Virginia. The County of Prince Edward closed its schools from 1959 until 1964 in an effort to avoid a federal court order to desegregate under the U. S. Supreme Court Brown v Board of Education decision. Another major purpose of this foundation is to educate and train the citizenry with respect to human and civil rights, in order to eliminate prejudice and discrimination and relieve the poor, the distressed, and the underprivileged. This is a 501 (c)(3) organization under the IRS.
