The Trust for the National Mall is the leading nonprofit, nonpartisan, privately funded philanthropic partner of the National Park Service, dedicated to restoring, enriching, and preserving the National Mall – America’s Front Yard – and President’s Park, including the White House grounds.
With more than 36 million annual visits, more than Yellowstone, Grand Canyon, and Yosemite National Park combined, the National Mall is one of the most visited parks in the world. It also has the highest cost for needed maintenance and modernization – more than any other national park; public allocations from Congress have been insufficient to sustain the National Mall.
The Trust for the National Mall advocates for the National Mall’s preservation, restoration, and enrichment through partnerships and thought leadership.
Each year, Washington, DC’s National Mall hosts over 36 million visitors, making it the most visited national park in the country.
