The 'Blues Foundation' is an American nonprofit corporation headquartered in Memphis, Tennessee that is affiliated with more than 135 Blues organizations, and with a membership spanning some twenty countries.
Founded in 1980, a twenty-five person Board of Directors governs the Foundation whose stated mission is to preserve Blues history. On its formation, the Foundation organized the annual W.C. Handy awards to "give recognition of the finest in blues performances and recordings."
The award has since been re-named "The Blues Music Awards."
