Make Your Mark on History
Honor a milestone, loved one, or cause with a commemorative tile permanently displayed on our Donor Wall as a lasting symbol of justice and progress.
Make Your Mark. Leave a Legacy That Lives Forever.
You are the heart of everything we stand for. Now, for a limited time, the National Center for Civil and Human Rights invites you to leave your mark where history lives and change begins by purchasing a commemorative tile on our new Donor Wall. Each tile supports the Center’s mission to educate, empower, and inspire future generations. Your inscribed tile will be permanently displayed alongside others who believe in justice, equality, and human dignity.
More than a donation, your tile is a lasting symbol of your values and vision. Whether celebrating a milestone, honoring a loved one, or representing a school, organization, or family, your contribution becomes part of a living legacy. With each tile, we build not only a wall but a monument to progress—one that strengthens our capacity to share transformative stories and host meaningful programs. Contribution levels begin at $1,000 for a standard tile and $5,000 for our largest-format tile, offering greater space and visibility. Supplies are limited, so secure your place in history today.
Contribution Levels
$1,000 – Standard Tile
Make a meaningful statement with a personalized tile featuring your name—or the name of a loved one, family, school, or organization—installed on our Mosaic Donor Wall among others who champion civil and human rights.
$5,000 – Legacy Tile (Largest Format)
Make a bold statement with our largest-format tile, featuring enhanced font size for greater visibility. This prominent tribute honors your lasting impact and deep commitment to justice and equity.
Each tile allows for up to 45 characters, including letters, spaces, and special characters.
