The Key West Harry S Truman Foundation,
Inc. exists for the purpose of protecting and preserving the building and grounds
of the state historic
site known as the Harry S. Truman Little White House in Key West, Florida.
Accumulating and disseminating information about the
American presidency with special emphasis on President Harry S. Truman and
the American presidents, past and present, who have enjoyed the Florida Keys
and Key West.
The Harry S. Truman Little White House is a living museum not frozen in
time. While it is imperative to maintain focus on the most important use
of the building during President Truman's visits from 1946 to 1952, it
is a site of continuing historic events and visits by world leaders and
these too must be commemorated and recognized especially in light of
President Truman's role as the father of modern statesmanship.
