The Norman Borlaug Heritage Foundation

The Norman Borlaug Heritage Foundation is a non-profit corporation with an all-volunteer board dedicated to the preservation of the Birthplace and Boyhood home of Dr. Norman E. Borlaug (1914-2009), where he established his values and work ethic. The Norman Borlaug Heritage Foundation is committed to promoting Dr. Borlaug's lifetime achievements and philosophy through education programs such as the Norman Borlaug Education Day 2009 and the Education Residency Program.

For over a half century, the scientific and humanitarian achievements of Dr. Norman Borlaug (Nobel Peace Prize winner, Congressional Gold Medal Winner, and recipient of over 50 honorary Doctorate Degrees) kept starvation at bay for millions of people in third world countries. Gregg Easterbrook wrote of Borlaug "Though barely known in the country of his birth, elsewhere in the world Norman Borlaug is widely considered to be among the leading Americans of our age. See Dr. Norman E. Borlaug's Curriculum Vitae.

The Foundation's immediate goals are centered around funding an endowment for the restoration and upkeep of Dr. Borlaug's Birthplace and Boyhood home and schoolhouse, and the continuation of the Borlaug Education Outreach Program. Please consider supporting the foundation's efforts to sustain Dr. Borlaug's legacy.
