CH Foundation
In November 1998, the Culture and Heritage Foundation (CHF) was formed to raise, invest, and manage endowment, capital building, acquisition, and operating funds for the exclusive benefit of all sites and programs operated by and/or supported by the CHC.
CHF is a 501-(c)-3 charitable organization governed by an independent self-appointed board of trustees. Through its initial organization, it incorporated an existing CHC endowment for collections and exhibitions and new funds were established to provide for improvements to CHC’s existing sites as well as the development of a new museum. The CHF’s Campaign for Deeper Understanding was launched in August 2003.
