The Youth Education Fund Needs Your Help

Help us fill the bus!The Youth Education Fund has an ambitious goal this year: $30,000. With admission at $2 per student, this would grant up to 15,000 students from across the commonwealth free admission to programs at the Virginia Historical Society and Virginia House. This fund also underwrites supplies sent to teachers before their visit or used during the various programs. It enables us to offer guided tours with paid museum educators. Your contribution to the Youth Education Fund will help make all of this possible.

Help us get kids excited about history.

Field trips take students out of the classroom and ignite a spark designed to make them eager to learn. Your support can fuel a fire that will feed a lifetime of curiosity, confidence, and knowledge.

Help us fill the bus by making your gift to the Youth Education Fund. Your gift will work to make sure every child has the chance to explore the world beyond the classroom.

Education is not the filling of a pail, but the lighting of a fire.
—William Butler Yeats

Each of us can remember a field trip from our childhood—the excitement and sense of wonder we felt in our new discoveries. You can help secure that memory for another child today.
