About The Foundation

The Eisenhower Foundation non-profit was formed in 1945 after the Allied victory in Europe to create a memorial to General Dwight D. Eisenhower. The Boyhood Home was opened in 1947 and the Museum in 1954 by the Foundation. Public and private entities raised $3.5 million to build the Presidential Library which opened in 1962.

Today, five buildings on 22 acres comprise the campus – the Presidential Library, Presidential Museum, Boyhood Home, Visitors Center and Place of Meditation. In 1990, for the Eisenhower Centennial, the Foundation established the Friends of the Eisenhower Foundation to support programs and outreach at the Eisenhower Presidential Library in Abilene, Kansas.
