Battersea Foundation
The Battersea Foundation Board's primary mission is to protect and preserve Battersea, a nationally significant landmark, and create a campus for cultural, civic and community education and enrichment on its more than 30 acres on the bluffs of the Appomattox River. The Foundation is composed of 18 Directors with a consulting Technical Advisory Panel that provides assistance and expertise to the organization.
Foundation support for programs and initiatives is provided by individual gifts, foundation funding, corporate support, and annual and special initiative giving efforts. Education and enrichment programs through its Leisure and Learning Series are offered to the community through on-site and off campus curriculum and provide sustainability for the Foundation's work.
