The Annual Fund provides general unrestricted support for the Patrick Henry Memorial Foundation. Most of the Foundation’s programs are supported through the Annual Fund, which provides the resources needed to meet our day to day operations. This gives our leadership the flexibility to confront situations and explore opportunities that arise during the course of the year. Giving through the Annual Fund demonstrates the closest trust between our donors and the organization. As a nonprofit organization, the Patrick Henry Memorial Foundation depends on support from individuals and earned revenue to meet its mission. The ongoing preservation work, educational programs, and research are all made possible thanks to generous individuals, corporations and foundations. And while we are an affiliated area of the National Park Service, we receive no government support for our work.
