White Oak Legacy Foundation

The White Oak Legacy Foundation is a non-profit organization formed to remember, restore, and rejuvenate the denim heritage of Greensboro. The organization has occupied space this month at the White Oak denim mill and begun the task of renovating shuttle denim looms to make fabrics on site. The group believes it can help spur Greensboro as a new "denim hub" that combines: celebration of authentic history, operation of ongoing production, home for denim education and an innovation center for future development. Financial contributions as well as original manufacturing assets and significant volunteer efforts have already been received. Long term strategic and financial plans are being developed and will be presented and discussed with government officials within the first quarter of 2021.
