The Eisenhower Foundation's mission is to honor and champion the relevance today of the life and leadership of Dwight D. Eisenhower through compelling programs and events that celebrate his legacy.

Located on the campus of the Eisenhower Presidential Library & Museum. Our flagship program — IKEducation — offers a wide variety of learning experiences for K-12 classrooms. Every IKEducation program is designed to utilize primary sources, meet national standards, and teach about the life or times of Dwight D. Eisenhower. Programs are not limited to history classes. Many offer cross-curricular combinations of social studies with language arts, STEM, music and painting. We provide students with a hands-on experience they'll never forget!

IKE ONSITE FIELD TRIPS: We are so excited that you want to bring your students to the Dwight D. Eisenhower Presidential Library, Museum, and Boyhood Home. We offer "IKEtivities" for enhanced learning at our different campus features as well as IKEducation programs that take place within our classroom spaces.
