The organization was established in 1984. Under contract with the County of Monroe, we are responsible for the repair, restoration, and security of the Charlotte-Genesee Lighthouse and grounds. We educate the public regarding the historical Charlotte-Genesee Lighthouse, the Village of Charlotte, the marine history in the area, and our International Peace Garden. Local historical research, education, and outreach are supported by our all-volunteer organization. We are a not-for-profit organization; and therefore, donations are tax-deductible.
