THANK YOU TO OUR DONORS
We are thrilled to report that we are over halfway through our $10.4 Million campaign goal. We
are deeply grateful to every donor for their generosity. These donors represent the foundation of
a bright future ahead for Washington-on-the-Brazos, and their gifts will transform the birthplace
of modern Texas into a world-class destination that will honor Texas’ diverse past and share real
stories about how that past has influenced Texas today and into the future.
We sincerely appreciate the generous support of the following donors who have made this
transformation possible.
