Welcome to the Claude Pepper Foundation
The Claude Pepper Foundation, a not-for-profit corporation, was established by Claude Pepper in 1986. Having been a key participant in shaping the extensive, momentous public policy of the 1900s, Senator Pepper knew the educational potential and historical significance of his vast collection of papers, images, recordings, and memorabilia.
He established the Claude Pepper Foundation to provide the resources to properly preserve, store, conserve, and make available the collection and to develop curricula and public activities that would maximize its educational potential. Since its founding, the Foundation has not only fulfilled that purpose but has developed extensive programs to further the objectives of Senator Pepper as evidenced by the causes he championed throughout his political career.
