Join us for Congressional Cemetery’s Inaugural Day of Giving as we celebrate two major milestones: the 250th anniversary of America and the 50th anniversary of Congressional Cemetery’s modern preservation movement.
Community volunteers at work in the cemetery, 1970s
From 7:00 AM to 7:00 PM, HCC staff and board members will be stationed at the cemetery’s front gate with one goal: to inspire 250 donations of $50 in support of our mission. Stop by for coffee, tea, donuts, and dog treats, and receive a custom Day of Giving sticker as a thank-you for your donation.
Your gift directly supports the work that makes Congressional Cemetery a living landscape of memory, history, and community, including preservation projects, educational programs, public events, and ongoing care for this active burial ground and urban greenspace.
Whether you are a longtime supporter, a neighbor, a K9 Corps member, or a first-time visitor, this is a simple and meaningful way to invest in the future of Congressional Cemetery. For more information and historic pictures, visit our blog here.
