The Need
Gift to the Nation
A Capital Campaign to Restore, Enrich and Preserve the National Mall
Restoring, enriching, and maintaining the National Mall—our premier National Park—is essential to preserving America's heritage. Universally recognized as a symbol of American democracy, the National Mall has over 36 million visits annualy, more than the Yellowstone, the Grand Canyon, and Yosemite combined.
Preserving the National Mall's role in the nation demands attention to projects critical to improving infrastucture, sustainability, and visitor experience.
Quite simply, public allocations from Congress have been insufficient to sustain the National Mall. The gap between public funds and needs can only be met by private gifts from generous patriots.
We all have a responsibility to care for America's Front Yard in order to ensure its bright future for generations to come.
