			<head>History of Wyoming State Historical Society Foundation</head>
			
			<p>The Wyoming State Historical Society Foundation (WSHF) was the governing and fundraising board for the Wyoming State Historical Society (WSHS).
				The State Historical Society began in 1953 and was made up of supporters from around the State, the country, and the world. It was an educational
				non-profit, donation driven organization, dedicated to preserving, exploring, and sharing Wyoming’s history for the benefit of all. The Foundation
				was the governing body of the Historical Society, and its fundraising arm.</p>

			<head>Statement on Potentially Harmful Language and Images Found in Collections</head> 
			<p>The American Heritage Center aspires to approach all areas of our work in ways that are
				respectful to those who create, use, and are represented in our collections. For a variety of
				reasons, however, users may encounter offensive or harmful language or images in some of our
				finding aids, catalogs, and collection materials.</p>
			
			<p>Note that the AHC does not censor or alter contents of the collections as they provide context and evidence of a time, people, place, or event. 
				Therefore, we encourage users to bring questions and concerns about descriptions in our finding aids to our attention via <extref href="mailto:ahcaccess@uwyo.edu">email</extref> or <extref href=" https://uwyo.sjc1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_08pzxtR5dTgN0sC">anonymous web-form</extref>.
