Preserving the Republican Founding Headquarters

Our Mission:

The Wisconsin Foundation aims to secure control of, relocate, preserve, and permanently maintain the birthplace of the Republican Party through your donations. The Republican Schoolhouse, also known as the Little White Schoolhouse, was built in Ripon, Wisconsin in 1853. It is now designated as a National Historic Landmark for its momentous significance in the 1854 founding of the Republican Party. Help support the Wisconsin Foundation in its mission to permanently preserve and relocate the Republican Party's founding headquarters.
