Explanation
(This amendment provides $50,000 the first year from the general fund to Hanover County Black Heritage Society, Inc., to cover the cost of office equipment and support, educational services, and community outreach, and to launch a capital campaign to purchase a historically significant building to establish a museum and to provide office space. There is a need to provide access to the rich and meaningful African American History of rural Hanover County since no other organization is providing the same services.)
