Union League Legacy Foundation

The Legacy Foundation inspires and educates League members, students, and the greater community to be engaged and responsible citizens, guided by the United States Constitution and the history and values of the Union League.

The Union League Legacy Foundation is dedicated to the same tenets of freedom and free enterprise upon which the Union League was founded. Through historic preservation, education, and scholarship, the Legacy Foundation promotes these values and ideals, inspiring more educated, engaged, and responsible citizens.

The Union League Legacy Foundation:

• cares for the historic collections;
• preserves the Union League House;
• provides civics education programs for high school students;
• curates interpretive and informative exhibits;
• grants scholarships for post-secondary education;
• presents the Good Citizenship Award;
• hosts multiple historical, cultural, and public policy lecture series;
• and much more.

In June 2019, The Union League Legacy Foundation was founded to encompass the three long-standing Foundations of the Union League — the Youth Work, Scholarship, and Abraham Lincoln Foundations.
