ANNUAL FUNDJamestown-Yorktown Foundation, Inc.

“I was privileged to have one of your Outreach Education instructors present to my class. They did a fabulous job and I know that every single of one of my students was en-thralled for an entire hour, clinging on ev-ery word and motion [they] made. Because of this wonderful presentation, we absolutely cannot wait until our field trip.”

– Melissa Heenan, Meadowland Elementary, Sterling, Virginia

“If my 7-year-old daughter says that a history museum is fun, you know you’re doing a great job! She’s a tough critic!”

– A Museum Visitor

“We believe that educating our teachers and youth is fundamental to the mission of Jamestown-Yorktown Foundation. Their mission is more relevant today than ever. We would encourage others to support the Foundation, Inc., whose work is so critical to preserving our nation’s history.”

– John and Audrael Chiricotti, members of The 1607 Society and The Legacy Society.

I would like to join the Jamestown-Yorktown Foundation’s museum family by making a gift to the Annual Fund.Yes,Preserving the Past...

The history of our nation is more than just a collection of names, dates, and places…it is the lives and experiences of those who made history. At Jamestown Settlement and the Yorktown Victory Center, visitors experience history firsthand through engaging galleries, and re-created outdoor areas where our nation’s history is something you can see, hear, and touch!

Shaping the Future The Jamestown-Yorktown Foundation, an educational agency of the Commonwealth of Virginia, has a unique mission to raise the awareness and foster an

understanding of the enduring legacies that Jamestown and Yorktown have bequeathed to our nation.We accomplish this mission in many ways: by acquiring and preserving artifacts for our galleries, operating our living-history interpretive sites, and conducting hands-on educational programming at our museums and in classrooms throughout Virginia.

The Annual Fund is an important part of these ongoing endeavors. Gifts to the Annual Fund support our on-site, interpretive, outreach, and special-event programming. As a donor to the Annual Fund, you can take pride in your support of our educational mission to shape the future by preserving the past.
