Event Space

HumanKind Facilities Available for Rent

If you are looking for a place to hold an event, our building and greenspace facilities are available for rental by both nonprofit and corporate partners. At this time we do not rent for private events or parties.

HumanKind’s 160-plus acre campus is in the heart of Lynchburg. While the property originally served as an orphanage called the Presbyterian Homes, the cottages on site are now used to house our HumanKind administrative and program offices.

Pavilion

Covered gathering space with six large picnic tables. Grilling is allowed, with three grills on site.

The chapel is a nice meeting room that can be configured in a variety of ways for meetings, dinners or instruction.  Our facilities team will work with you to design a setup that will fit your needs.
