Honor Senator Kennedy's Legacy

The Edward M. Kennedy Institute for the United States Senate tells us:


There's a snowy field on Columbia Point in Boston, right next to the John F. Kennedy Presidential Library.
This spring, we'll be breaking ground on that field to begin construction on the new Edward M. Kennedy Institute for the United States Senate.
The EMK Institute will teach our children and grandchildren about the Senate's incredible history - and inspire the next generation of leaders to serve our country. It's exactly what Senator Kennedy wanted.
As a supporter of Senator Kennedy's work in the U.S. Senate, we hope you will support this new endeavor to honor the Senator's life and legacy. Please make a tax-deductible donation to the EMK Institute by December 31st:

Senator Kennedy loved the Senate; in fact, in his memoir, True Compass, he wrote:

To say that I love the Senate does not begin to convey what that institution means to me. Let me put it this way: After nearly half a century, I still cannot be in a car, headed for the Capitol, especially in the evening, and glimpse it in the distance without the hair standing up on my arms.
We want to recreate that same feeling for every visitor, each class, each teacher, each student, and each life-long learner who enters the EMK Institute.
The state-of-the-art institute will have an interactive exhibition hall, a digital library, research center, and five classrooms. It will also contain an exact replica of Senator Kennedy's office in Washington - and a U.S. Capitol Senate chamber to host debates and mock-Senate programs for students.
Senator Kennedy's incredible legacy wouldn't have been possible without the support of people like you. Please help honor that legacy by making a tax-deductible donation to the EMK Institute:

Thank you, and happy holidays.
