To mark the 5th anniversary of the earthquake that shook Washington National Cathedral, you can help raise $500,000 to help repair the west towers—which frame the main entrance—and other crucial restoration projects.

And when you give to restore the Cathedral, you know you're doing so much more than repairing a building. The incredible craftsmanship of stone, glass, wood, and ironwork is as much a part of the ministry of this place as the services and programs that take place inside.

The Cathedral was handed down to us by the generations who came before us. We're privileged to enjoy it today, and we owe it to future generations to pass it along fully restored to its pre-earthquake grandeur. Please make your anniversary gift today!

And remember, we'll be thanking each generous donor who gives $500 or more by August 23 with a copy of our new full-color restoration coffee table book, The Day the Earth Shook!
