Who we are

The Edisto Island Historic Preservation Society (EIHPS) is a 501(c)(3) non-profit corporation, founded for the purpose of preserving Edisto Island’s history and educating the public about the rich historic and cultural history of Edisto Island.

A nine member board governs EIHPS.

Over 700 member households support the organization.

 

A staff of a Director, an administrative assistant and three part-time museum shop employees as well as a complement of volunteers operate the museum and advocate for historic preservation.
