What kind of response has your nonprofit received since you formed it last year?

David Bush: We have received over 220 donations from members of the interested public, from descendants, and from various foundations. As noted earlier, we are endorsed by the only nationally recognized Civil War preservation organization, the Civil War Preservation Trust, as well as the Archaeological Conservancy and the Archaeological Institute of America. We have had national coverage of our efforts, and continue to promote our efforts through venues like this one. Although we have received many words of encouragement, we still are in need of the finances to complete our purchase of the property.
