The Guelph Black Heritage Society (GBHS) is dedicated to preserving the historical significance of the former Guelph British Methodist Episcopal (BME) Church, now known as Heritage Hall, established in 1880. Built by formerly enslaved Black individuals and their descendants who arrived via the Underground Railroad, Heritage Hall serves as a cultural, historical, and social center in Guelph and Wellington County.

With a mission to restore and maintain the BME Church building, the GBHS aims to foster community engagement and awareness of Black heritage in the region. Their efforts include organizing events, volunteer opportunities, and educational initiatives to celebrate the rich history of the Black experience throughout Wellington County.
