Our Mission
Building Capacity, Preserving Culture
The Virginia Nottoway Indian Circle and Square Foundation, Inc. is an IRS 501(c) (3) non-profit entity. It is the mission of the Foundation to preserve and perpetuate the ideas, culture, and traditions of the Nottoway Indian Tribe of Virginia.
The Foundation and the Nottoway Indian Tribe of Virginia, Inc. work together in a concerted effort to enlighten and inform others of the true American Indian way of life to engage in educational and cultural activities to benefit the Virginia Indian Community; and the community at large in the Commonwealth of Virginia. Together, we strive to ensure that our educational systems teach an accurate portrayal of the American Indian contribution to America’s history.
The Circle and Square Foundation works alongside the Tribal Council to expand opportunities for Nottoway citizens and to share our history with the wider community. Through grants, partnerships, and charitable programs, the Foundation helps fund educational scholarships, cultural events, and the ongoing operations of the Community House & Interpretive Center.
Its name reflects the circle of community and the square of responsibility — values that guide every project it supports.
