About Friends of Pump House
Founded in 2017, Friends of Pump House is a volunteer-led non-profit organization dedicated to preserving, protecting, and restoring the historic Byrd Park Pump House. Our members devote their time and energy to this cause in a variety of ways, including participation in monthly workdays, hosting tours and educational events, advocacy, historic research, and fundraising.
We are grateful for the support of Friends of the James River Park, who serve as our fiscal sponsor.
