OnePULSE was founded in 2016 with the primary mission of building a memorial to honor the 49 lives lost in the Pulse Nightclub massacre.

The foundation told Channel 9 in November that the pandemic, the cost of the project and not enough charitable funding led it to cancel the Pulse Museum project and ultimately move toward dissolving the foundation.
