Dear Friend,
During this ongoing pandemic, I’ve been thinking about our National Trust community and hope you are doing well, despite everything. I’ve also been reflecting on how COVID-19 has kept us apart from the people and places we love—which has only deepened my appreciation for how historic sites connect us to one another.
That’s because these landmarks, landscapes, and neighborhoods have the unique ability to tie people with place, past with present, individual with community. These national treasures relate the stories that shape our common identity, shining a light on our interconnectedness. But it’s up to us to ensure that they will still be standing today, tomorrow, and long into the future.
Friend, as someone who truly understands what’s at stake, will you join our loyal group of Preservation Partners monthly donors? Our Partners help to create reliable funds for the places that demand our assistance over the long term, so we can plan for the unpredictable—including site closures, weather events, and staff shortages—which is essential during these times.
As one of our Preservation Partners, you’ll be reassured that your commitment is making a difference for America’s historic places. You’ll enjoy benefits like our award-winning Preservation magazine. And you’ll never receive a renewal notice, thanks to the convenience of automatic monthly deductions.
The National Trust is looking for 21 new Preservation Partners to kick off 2021. Will you answer the call of this vital goal? We’ll send you this tote as a token of our gratitude when you donate just $7 or more a month.
