Dear Friend,

Thank you for celebrating our 71st birthday with us! We’re able to connect
Americans to our past and to one another thanks to the commitment of people like
you, and we are grateful for your support.

This is your last chance to participate in our birthday matching campaign. Since
it’s our 71st birthday, we’re looking for 71 new donors to participate. Every
dollar you give until midnight tonight will be matched by a generous donor, up
to $7,100.

We’ve experienced a number of crucial milestones in our 71-year history and have
seen history made first-hand. It goes without saying that this year has been
historic in its own regard.

Unfortunately, the unprecedented events of 2020 impacted many of our programs.
We experienced a disruption to critical revenue streams this year since many of
our Historic Sites were closed at peak times of the year. Your
gift will help ensure we have the funding needed to protect and honor places
that have shaped our nation’s rich history and tell the full American story.

Your contribution will help save irreplaceable sites that are in need of
support, places like:

* The National Mall Tidal Basin, which is experiencing daily flooding and
crumbling infrastructure;
* Farnsworth House, an architectural masterpiece not far from Chicago that is
fighting repeated floods from rising water levels in the nearby Fox River;
* Miami’s Little Havana neighborhood, which faces a range of threats, including
development pressure, demolition of historic buildings, and displacement of
existing residents;
* And many, many more.

Will we be able to save these historically important and culturally rich places?
Much of that depends on how much support you’re able to provide.

You can be one of the 71 people who helps us reach our goal—and DOUBLE your
impact for places that tell America’s story—with a special gift today!

Thank you again for joining us on our birthday and for believing in America’s
historic places.

Sincerely,
