 Mission Statement |
||
| The Jamestowne Society was organized for educational, historical, and | ||
| patriotic purposes, and to that end: | ||
To discover and record the names of all living descendants |
||
| of those early settlers who made the great sacrifice | ||
| to establish our English-speaking Nation; | ||
| and to unite these descendants to honor the memory | ||
| of our settler ancestors; | ||
| and to record their deeds, and to do homage | ||
| to the birthplace of Virginia and the Nation. | ||
|
To associate those descendants as members |
||
| of the corporation. | ||
|
To bring the members into closer association |
||
| through activities revolving around matters | ||
| of common historical and genealogical interest. | ||
|
To promote the restoration of historical records, |
||
| documents, objects, and edifices which are of | ||
| lasting cultural value to the people of Virginia | ||
| and of the Nation. | ||
|
To assist in the organization of state companies, |
||
| reminiscent of the London and Virginia Companies, | ||
| in states where membership and interest justify them. | ||
| No part of the net earnings of the Corporation will inure to the benefit | ||
| of private shareholders or individuals, and in the event of dissolution | ||
| of the Corporation, its assets will be distributed to the Commonwealth | ||
| of Virginia or to a designated organization (or organizations) | ||
| exempt under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code (1954, as amended). | ||
