In partnering with Tourism Cares, we are working to preserve today’s treasures for tomorrow’s travelers. It is hard to imagine the joy of travel without many of today’s most famous destinations being around.
The following are just a few of locations that benefit from the Save our Sites program:
Located in Pennsylvania, Independence Hall is known as the birthplace of America. This is where the Declaration of Independence was adopted, as well as where the Constitution of the United States was debated, drafted and signed.
The Crazy Horse Memorial is unique in that it is not yet fully constructed. The project began in 1946 by sculptor Korczak Ziolkowski. In 1982, Ziolkowski passed away, but his family continues the work through the Crazy Horse Memorial Foundation.
It is our responsibility to preserve the attractions that travelers go to great lengths to experience so that future generations can enjoy the experience of travel as well.
