Mission

MISSION: The mission of the President Benjamin Harrison Foundation is to increase public understanding of, appreciation for, and participation in the American system of self government through the life stories of an American President. Adopted by the President Benjamin Harrison Foundation Board of Directors on December 5, 2002.

VISION: The vision of the President Benjamin Harrison Foundation is the renewal and reinvigoration of the mutual covenant between governor and governed which is at the heart of the American experiment in self-government. Adopted by the President Benjamin Harrison Foundation Board of Directors on November 7, 2002.

PURPOSE: The President Benjamin Harrison Foundation, Inc., a not for profit, tax-exempt organization, is dedicated to maintaining and preserving the President Benjamin Harrison Home as a museum and memorial to the only President of the United States elected from the State of Indiana. Open to the public as
an educational and historical service, the Home seeks to promote patriotism and citizenship through appropriate educational activities and by artfully exhibiting the Victorian time period as Harrison and his
family might have experienced it. Summarized from the Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation of the President Benjamin Harrison Foundation, Inc. as approved by the Board of Directors on December 15, 1994.
