The Willow Hill Heritage and Renaissance Center concept was
spawned after the 1954 Willow Hill School building and property
was placed for sale by the Bulloch County Board of Education in
2005. A group of concerned citizens and direct descendents of
the founders of Willow Hill School looked for a way to purchase
the school in an effort to preserve the legacy of the Willow
Hill School.
This group had approximately two weeks to secure the funds for
the purchase of the school property. The group members pooled
their resources and personally donated $60,000.00 dollars for
the project.
The Willow Hill School was started in 1874 by former slaves. The
school was in existence for 125 years; the longest for any
school in Bulloch County, Georgia.
The founding of the Willow Hill Heritage and Renaissance Center
and its future operation as a museum and community resource is
an effort to preserve a piece of American History. This museum
will serve to educate and expand the current knowledge of Black
History in the 21st century.
The LEGACY BRICK CAMPAIGN is an integral part of this
preservation. These funds will be used to support the ongoing
mission of the Willow Hill Heritage and Renaissance Center.
