https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nV8v99W3_Q4Welcome to The Dunnington Mansion Foundation's GoFundMe Campaign!
Finally, our foundation has ownership of Dunnington Mansion (Poplar Hill) in Farmville, VA!
The Dunnington Mansion Foundation has waited five long years for this opportunity. We will not have a second chance to save this beautiful place and WE NEED YOUR HELP!
As a 501c3 nonprofit dedicated to preserving our local heritage, we are thrilled at the prospect of restoring this historic gem and rehabilitating it into a multi-use event and community center. All donations are tax deductible.
We are launching a multi-wave campaign to raise funds for rehabilitation/restoration projects. If we fail to raise the required funds, or do not raise them quickly enough, the fate of the mansion will likely fall to residential developers. Our goal is not only to save the
mansion, but to safeguard its history!
Thank you for being a champion of this important cause!! If you need to contact the foundation please use the contact page on our website listed below.
