The Ephraim Historical Foundation was founded in 1949 as a not-for-profit organization.  The purposes of the Foundation are as follows:

• To sustain the beauty of Ephraim for the enjoyment of residents, guests, and visitors.
• To preserve and foster the preservation of historical monuments, buildings, structures, sites, documents, and relics.
• To foster the development of cultural services including libraries, art, historical museums, adult education, and other civic services especially within the village of Ephraim, but also including the state of Wisconsin.

With these purposes in mind, the Foundation has acquired a number of articfacts, documents, buildings, and properties that deal with Ephraim's rich history.  We are as committed to preserving that history of Ephraim as our founders were in 1949.
