We Save Hallowed Ground

The Civil War Trust is a lean, dynamic organization that has, through the generosity of our members, saved more than 34,000 acres of battlefield land in 20 different states. As we approach the end of a remarkable 2012, please consider making one last charge, one last push to save even more of our hallowed ground.

One of the reasons that the Civil War Trust is ranked as a 4-Star Charity by Charity Navigator, is our unique ability to maximize each donation through the use of government and other matching grant sources. Every dollar you give to the Trust provides us with an average of $5 of land-buying power. With that kind of amazing return on investment, you can rest assured that your donation, no matter the size, will make a real difference in Civil War Trust's efforts to protect hallowed ground.
