Columbia Heritage Foundation is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization founded to save the old West Columbia Junior High campus (formerly the historic high school) and convert it into a Historical and Cultural Center.

The CHF board maintains a large multi-building former school campus. Our Heritage Hall/Gusher Inn serves as a gathering place for community events such as showers, weddings and fundraisers. Adding to the efforts of the West Columbia Rotary Club, the Gathering Church has refurbished and utilizes the Rotary Auditorium. The former band hall is currently being renovated by the West Columbia Oilers.

Despite our best fundraising efforts, our need is GREAT! We are paying on multiple loans for roof repairs. Our aging air conditioners require frequent repair and will need to be replaced in the future.
