Today, the important role played by law-abiding gun owners is less well understood now than at any time in our nation's history. Through our successful acquisition of the Freedom Conservancy property, the Foundation is establishing a world-class shooting sports and firearms safety education facility right here in the heart of Southern Indiana.
