Artifact Overview
In the mid-1930s, Henry Ford increasingly stepped back from day-to-day business at Ford Motor Company to focus on philanthropy. He devoted more time to projects like Greenfield Village and his Edison Institute museum, and to Berry College in rural Georgia. In 1936, Henry and his son Edsel established the Ford Foundation to distribute charitable funds from the family's considerable fortune.
