The Guardian Trust Endowment Fund is a permanently restricted fund, to provide for the preservation, restoration, and conservation of our exquisite and historic complex of buildings at 1776 D Street in Washington D.C. Do you know that, as a Daughter you are the proud owner of the largest complex of historical buildings owned and maintained exclusively by women? What our founders built; we must preserve! As Daughters we are charged to “guard that which is committed to our trust” and to provide security for future generations of Daughters.

You may make a single donation of at least $5,000, or as a Sustaining Supporter, you become eligible to purchase this pin when your total monthly donations to the Guardian Trust reach a minimum of $5000.
