Anna T. Jeanes Foundation
Definition
- The Anna T. Jeanes Foundation, also known as The Fund for Rudimentary Schools for Southern Negroes or the Negro Rural School Fund, was founded in 1907 by Anna Thomas Jeanes (1822–1907), a wealthy Philadelphia Quaker who had a keen interest in the small rural schools of the South. It gave birth to and supported the Jeanes teacher movement, which was developed and directed by Virginia E. Randolph, a veteran African American teacher in a one-room schoolhouse.
