About the Business
The Cape Charles Colored School, located on Old Cape Charles Road in Virginia, is a historic institution with a rich history as a Rosenwald School. Recently, the school received a $100,000 grant from the National Trust & JPB Foundation. The school was once the heart of its community and is now undergoing redevelopment efforts to preserve its legacy.
The school aims to offer experiences that engage and enrich the community, promote cultural awareness and understanding, and support self-sufficiency and economic mobility. To support these efforts, individuals can contribute to the redevelopment by donating $250 for a personalized brick, which is tax deductible.
Join us in honoring the legacy of the Cape Charles Rosenwald School and be a part of its continued impact on the community.
Reviews
"What an amazing artifact of American history. The lived experience of many of Cape Charles's African American residents runs through this school. It was closed in the late 1960's, but a preservation group is restoring it. Please donate to the restoration efforts - see the link in the profile. Any amount will do."
"History in the remaking"
"No trespassing - this place is private property! Unfortunately, there is not much to see. We parked in a gravel driveway at the front of the building. Because there was a "No Trespassing" sign, we did not venture far."
"Needs work looks run down"
"SUPPORT THIS ,WHAT A GREAT BEGINNING. The schools architecture is awesome."
