Give a Lincoln for Lincoln

Give a Lincoln for Lincoln

Throughout 2009, History™, National Park Foundation, and National Trust for Historic Preservation will proudly commemorate the bicentennial of our 16th President’s birth with a new initiative: GIVE A LINCOLN FOR LINCOLN™. This program encourages Americans of all ages to donate Lincoln-head pennies and five dollar bills to help preserve six key national parks and historic sites associated with Lincoln’s life and legacy.
