The Enrichmond Foundation took control of East End and Evergreen cemeteries in 2019. The fate of the money and the cemeteries has been unknown since the nonprofit dissolved in 2022.
When Enrichmond dissolved, community groups lost access to their money. They estimate hundreds of thousands of donated dollars just disappeared. Months later they still haven’t gotten answers.
Development has forced many historically Black communities around the country to uproot and disperse. Cemeteries often remain the only proof that those communities existed.
