About the company
Center For African American Military History, Inc., doing business as Buffalo Soldiers National Museum, is a nonprofit, minority-owned, veteran-owned organization based in Houston, Texas that operates as a federal grant recipient (88% of recent awards) focused on museum collections preservation, curation, educational programming, and public engagement around African American military history.
