Mission: The mission of the Pipe Organ Foundation is to charitably promote the preservation, placement, and playing of pipe organs.
he Pipe Organ Foundation is a nonprofit corporation which is committed to the preservation and playing of pipe organs, especially in public places. We believe that the pipe organ provides unparalleled opportunities for the uplifting of the human spirit, cultural enhancement, and worship. We are therefore committed to the preservation, placement, and playing of these instruments, and as a charitable institution, we facilitate the placement of these instruments in public settings with limited resources and we do this at minimal cost.
We are based in the Seattle, Washington area and do most of our work within this area. However, we are willing to consider projects elsewhere, and especially contributions of organs from other places.
We work with pipe organs that are primarily electropneumatic and electromechanical in action.
Please contact us with any pipe organs you may wish to donate or make available to the Foundation at nominal cost. Please also contact us with any needs for pipe organs which you may have, and we will try to be of help to you. On January 20, 2002, the IRS awarded the Pipe Organ Foundation 501(c)(3) status as a Public Charity, and this status was reaffirmed by the IRS on July 11, 2005 after having passed the test for a public supported charity rather than a private foundation.
