About the Foundation The Tennessee Valley Fair Foundation is a nonprofit organization created in 2018 and is an independent nonprofit organization. Our mission is to preserve East Tennessee’s heritage by promoting agricultural awareness, supporting educational programs, and cultivating youth development. The Tennessee Valley Fair Foundation generates funds for scholarships, educates youth about the importance of agriculture, and gives back to the community.
For the past century, the Tennessee Valley Fair has been an outlet for the young people of our community to showcase their talents. Establishing the Foundation will allow us to generate even more opportunities for post-secondary education for our competition winners.
With
the support of members like you, we can continue to create educational
opportunities and scholarships for the youth of East Tennessee. As a member, you will receive advance notice
on annual concert line-ups, fair merchandise, discount tickets, and more. Most
importantly, your generosity will be used to build the foundation for future
students to learn, grow, and thrive.
By benefiting the Foundation through events such as the Cotton Candy Classic 5k or simply by contributing a donation, you can support the Foundation and our community’s exceptional youth. We need your support, so we can continue to offer the traditions and experiences that only the Tennessee Valley Fair can provide.
