The Fairview-E.S. Brown Heritage Corporation, a historical non-profit organization, seeks to preserve the life-affirming African American cultural experiences of the early 1900s; namely, the Fairview Colored School located in Cave Spring, GA. The campus was erected under the Julius Rosenwald and Booker T. Washington philanthropic building campaign to provide an education for African Americans. Ongoing restoration projects are underway, with the organization’s plans including a renovated four-acre campus featuring a museum, campsite, organic garden, and multi-purpose buildings to benefit the entire community.
