Paoli Battlefield Preservation Fund Details
The Paoli Battlefield Preservation Fund is dedicated to protecting, preserving and promoting the historical significance of the Paoli Battlefield through the funding and development of educational programs and conservation activities including historical tours, reenactments, research, publications, lectures/workshops and restoration of the property to its indigenous state.The Paoli Battlefield Preservation Fund (PBPF) is one of three entities (along with the Borough of Malvern and the Paoli Memorial Association) that jointly own and manage the Paoli Battlefield, site of the "Paoli Massacre" and listed on the National Register of Historic Places. It was incorporated in 1998 as a Pennsylvania Non-Profit to prevent the 40 acres of pristine battle site from suburban development. PBPF led a well-publicized national campaign that rallied historians, local, state and federal officials, school children and patriotic Americans. The result was recognition on the National Register of Historic Places in 1997, significant private donations and a special "Patriot Act" passed by Congress that helped fund both Paoli and Brandywine Battlefields.PBPF then deeded the property to the Borough of Malvern and acts as its exclusive agent to develop, use, occupy and control the Battlefield.The Paoli Battlefield Preservation Fund is operated by a volunteer Board of Directors and relies on volunteer membership, tax-exempt donations and educational and historic grants to meet its mission.
