Support the Conference
The DC History Conference is 100% free to attend and is run by a volunteer committee. As a result, donations and sponsorships are vital to sustaining the conference from year to year. If you want to support the future of the conference, there are a few ways you can get involved!

If you would like to make a gift of your choosing, you can donate online. Every dollar counts, and donations of all amounts are welcome and appreciated!
