Support the Future of Ford’s Theatre

This February, help Ford’s Theatre honor President Abraham Lincoln’s legacy with a gift to our Campaign for the Future.
Lincoln’s Legacy, Our Legacy: Ford’s Theatre’s Campaign for the Future is closing in on our ambitious $52 million goal, but we still need your help to cross the finish line! Make a gift today and it will be matched dollar-for-dollar up to $250,000 by The Morris & Gwendolyn Cafritz Foundation. Going twice as far to provide resources to advance “the unfinished work” of President Lincoln, sharing his legacy and inspiring current and future generations.
