Sharing our TOP 10 from 2020, with thanks to YOU
December 18, 2020 - As we look back on this unusual year and look ahead with hope and optimism for the year ahead, I want to pause, reflect and thank you for being part of the Trust for the National Mall community.
With your help, our team has been able to keep our work growing and thriving, while bringing the best of the National Mall to you until we can come together in person. Before we close out 2020 and move fully into 2021, I wanted to share some of the Trust for the National Mall’s favorite moments of the past year. Whether you’re reliving these milestones with us or discovering them for the first time, I hope you’ll enjoy digging in, learning more and sharing them far and wide.
As I look back on all that’s happened in the past year, I am finding inspiration in the many examples of courage, resilience and creativity that arose to meet the many challenges this year brought. I speak for the whole team at the Trust for the National Mall when I say that our late nights, adjusted plans and new approaches were all made possible and worthwhile thanks to you -- our wonderful community of supporters.
We have some exciting efforts coming up in 2021 that we can’t wait to share with you. As winter settles in, our team at the Trust for the National Mall is working hard with an eye towards spring: making sure that the cherry trees and the Tidal Basin are healthy and well cared-for, so that DC’s beloved cherry blossoms come to life this coming spring and for generations to come. I can’t think of a better way to illustrate why our year-round work matters, and why you matter: so that we can keep “America’s Front Yard” evolving, growing and thriving to ensure that it remains inclusive and accessible to all.
I wish you a peaceful and healthy holiday season. Stay safe and well.
With appreciation,
Catherine Townsend, President and CEO
