Collecting Donations for the Caroline County Training School

A man at right donates money for the Caroline County Training School, an institution that trained teachers for African American schools. Jackson Davis, the Virginia field agent for the General Education Board from 1915 to 1929, took this photograph, one of about 6,000 he made documenting the conditions of rural schools and the industrial education of African Americans.
