Our core mission is rooted in freedom, community education, and devotion. We are dedicated to protecting our history in Quindaro, Kansas, by actively working to form a tribe, addressing paper genocide, and engaging with the UN and other international entities.
Furthermore, we honor and protect our veterans and support local youth through educational scholarships to HBCUs, job placement, sports programs, historical education, and international volunteer travel opportunities. Our devotion to this area also encompasses collaborating with local churches through prayer and providing direct assistance for the immediate needs of our community during crises and unforeseen disasters, such as tornadoes.
The foundation also focuses on our family history, ranging from the Civil War to the present day. We share family stories, explore veteran recollections from historical letters, and celebrate stories of hope, love, and triumph. We conduct podcast shows with guest appearances and discussions supporting the preservation of valuable family heirlooms, documents, and pictures. We also provide information about vital resources, mental health support, and navigating challenges of post-war traumas.
Our goal is to create a space where veterans, friends, and family members can find support by sharing our history, protecting our legacy, and ensuring that future generations never forget the sacrifices made by our families through the centuries.
