The Founders Circle is a community of donors dedicated to preserving the history and culture of Washington, DC and ensuring they have a vital place in our city’s future. Your gift helps guarantee that DC’s authentic stories will endure for generations to come.
As the DC History Center and HumanitiesDC come together as a merged organization, we invite our philanthropic community to help shape what comes next. This is an opportunity to get in on the ground floor of something new and invest in an organization built on decades of intellectual exchange, community connection, and deep commitment to DC. Your support at this pivotal moment will help turn a bold vision into a lasting resource—and make you part of the story of how it began.
Moments like this do not come along often! Join us at one of the Founders Circle levels below, or at the level that is right for you. We are grateful for gifts of every size.
