WE PRESERVE MORE THAN
CIVIL WAR BATTLEFIELDS.
WE PROTECT THE MEMORY, MEANING, SACRIFICES & STORIES OF THE BRAVE
MEN WHO FOUGHT & FELL HERE.
Members are Now Partners!
Central Virginia Battlefields Trust is excited to introduce a new, simplified alternative to our current donor recognition structure! As of February 1, 2019, we no longer refer to you as a "Member" or offer membership categories. We feel that the term "Partner" more effectively illustrates your integral role in our battlefield preservation mission. "Active Partner" status will be granted for any donation made to CVBT and will extend for one year from the date of gift. As long as you donate at least once a year, you will always remain an Active Partner of CVBT.
2019 - 23 Years of Preserving Americas History
Central Virginia Battlefields Trust (CVBT) is a non-profit organization dedicated to the preservation of endangered, historic battlefields in Fredericksburg, Chancellorsville, the Wilderness and Spotsylvania Court House areas of Virginia. Incorporated in 1996, we have helped preserve over 1,300 acres of historic battlefield terrain where many gave their last full measure. In addition to purchasing land, our mission includes advocacy for battlefield preservation.
We work constructively with local governments in the spirit of mutual benefit and cooperation. We are proud of the positive partnerships cultivated with landowners, preservation organizations, and local governments over the years. Central Virginia Battlefields Trust remains a proactive organization, with continuing battlefield preservation projects and negotiations.
CVBT focuses on, and is commitment to, our mission of battlefield preservation. By saving this important land we not only increase our ability to study our nation’s past but create much needed Green Space in our ever-disappearing natural landscape.
