Celebrating Abraham Lincoln's Bicentennial

February 12th marks the 200th anniversary of Abraham Lincoln’s birth. From his humble beginning in rural Kentucky, to his struggles to preserve the Union, to his enduring legacy, the National Trust for Historic Preservation is proud to present the places dedicated to preserving the tangible connections to America’s 16th President.

Give a Lincoln for Lincoln

Throughout 2009, History™ will proudly commemorate the bicentennial of Abraham Lincoln’s birth with a new initiative entitled “Give a Lincoln for Lincoln." In association with the National Park Foundation and the National Trust for Historic Preservation, this program encourages Americans to donate Lincoln-head pennies, five dollar bills, or make larger donations online to help preserve six key sites associated with Lincoln’s life and legacy.
