Ways to Support the Foundation
Every contribution helps
preserve history and expand our mission.
The Hatfield McCoy Foundation is a unique opportunity for the families to come together in solidarity to form a joint-family endeavor that will promote, advocate, and preserve the interests of the families for future generations.
While significant strides have been made in the preservation of feud heritage sites in the past two decades, most efforts have been funded and overseen by public entities. The Foundation will be the first privately held corporation organized, funded, and supported by the families, working on behalf of supporting the families’ joint-heritage.
The Hatfields and McCoys Foundation is a 501c (3) nonprofit organization that is dedicated to preserving not only our own family heritage, but also our wonderful Appalachian culture.
