Program areas at Valley Forge Park Alliance

The Valley Forge Park Alliance is running a capital campaign to raise funds to renovate the Maurice Stephens House. The home has a great deal of historic value to the region and to Valley Forge Park. As part of the restoration, VFPA is planning to include expanding upon existing programs and creating new programs at the house, while also establishing a headquarters for their organization.
The Organization pays a monthly salary to the executive director, while also employing a few part-time and temporary employees, to help with membership support services, promotion of the Organization and other general administrative expenses and costs. It would be nearly impossible to quanitfy their contributions, due to the subjective nature of the work, so we are including revenue items of. membership income as well as gifts to the organization.
The Friends of Valley Forge promote park awareness through collecting general donations, and collections for specific park projects and special events to enhance the park and the visitor experience while at the park. The Organization had expenses incurred from their annual appeals, rev run funds and speaker series at the park. The total revenues are difficult to determine, but the number above represents all other contributions and gifts received.
Other program expenses for The Friends of Valley Forge Park include membership and investment management, fulfillment, and various other park programs and projects to support the mission of providing services for Valley Forge Park.
