<div>The Hotel Thelma, a historically registered establishment and a former listing in the Green Book, served as a safe haven for African American travelers passing through Bluefield, including notable figures like the late Tina Turner. The Hotel Thelma Project, a nonprofit group, is dedicated to preserving the history and legacy of this landmark by undertaking its restoration to the prominence it held in the past.

<div>Our objective extends beyond the restoration of Hotel Thelma; we aspire to revitalize the entire East End community, a historically significant African American neighborhood in Bluefield, WV, boasting a rich history that this project seeks to highlight. The estimated cost for the necessary repairs is $2,000,000.00, and we seek your assistance in achieving this goal.
