The White Hall-Clermont Foundation is a group of individuals dedicated to the preservation and continued support of White Hall State Historic Site. Originally created under the name the Cassius Clay Foundation, the White Hall-Clermont Foundation was formed in 1997 and changed its name in 2005. While the State of Kentucky owns and manages White Hall, the Foundation augments programming and funding for the site. Over the past eleven years the Foundation has been committed to promoting the history and events of White Hall State Historic Site.
