Pierce Brigade
The Pierce Brigade is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to preserving the legacy of Franklin Pierce, the 14th President of the United States. It operates and manages the Pierce Manse, the only home ever owned by President Pierce, located in Concord, New Hampshire.
Mission
The primary mission of the Pierce Brigade is to maintain the historic Pierce Manse as a public educational resource and to promote the history and significance of President Franklin Pierce's life and achievements. The organization provides guided tours and educational programs focused on the mid-19th century, enhancing public understanding and appreciation of American history.
Financial Overview
The Pierce Brigade's financial activities are primarily supported by contributions, program services, and small amounts from other revenue sources such as sales of inventory and rental property income. For example, in recent fiscal years, contributions have accounted for nearly 60% of the organization's total revenue, while program services have contributed around 36%. The organization has no liabilities and maintains significant total assets.
Volunteer and Membership Support
The organization relies heavily on volunteer support and membership dues to fulfill its mission. Volunteers contribute by giving tours, conducting community outreach, and assisting with administrative tasks and property maintenance. Membership options are available for individuals, students, and families, providing a structured way for supporters to engage with and financially back the organization's goals.
Historical Preservation Efforts
In the 1970s, concerned citizens in Concord formed the Pierce Brigade to save the Pierce Manse from potential destruction during urban revitalization efforts. By 1971, the organization had acquired ownership of the Manse and led the effort to relocate it from its original downtown location to its current site, ensuring its preservation for future generations.
