What started originally as an effort to promote the four major sites in northeast Ohio affiliated with the 20th U.S. President James A. Garfield: Moreland Hills (birth site), Hiram College (education), the James A. Garfield National Historic Site (Mentor farm), and Lake View Cemetery (final resting place), has now become a 501 (c) 3 organization that will provide philanthropic support to, as well as increased awareness of, the four “cradle to grave” sites.
The founders of the group are Tim Garfield (great-great- grandson of President James A. Garfield) Carla Vondrak Garfield, Debbie Weinkamer, and Chris Weinkamer, with assistance of attorney Josh Strickland of Dworken & Bernstein, Co., L.P.A. in Painesville, Ohio. The Board of Trustees includes representatives from the four organizations.
