Stanley Black & Decker has made a contribution worth $300,000 to the Trust for the National Mall to support the preservation of the Washington, D.C. monument in honor of America’s 250th anniversary this summer.
The donation from the New Britain-based toolmaker includes monetary support as well as an in-kind donation of the company’s DEWALT brand tools.
Those include outdoor equipment, carpentry and specialty trade tools intended for use on restoration, maintenance and beautification efforts across the National Mall.
This June, Stanley Black & Decker says its employees will volunteer in Washington, D.C., supporting hands-on repair and restoration projects across the National Mall's grounds and infrastructure.
The Trust for the National Mall and the National Park Service are in the midst of a fundraising campaign associated with the 250th anniversary called Our Monumental Moment.
Projects include the restoration of Constitution Gardens and Sylvan Theater and the creation of new civic learning experiences to help visitors connect with the history of the National Mall.
