HELP US SPREAD THE JOY OF SPRING

NATIONAL CHERRY BLOSSOM FESTIVAL

Support One of the World's Greatest Celebrations of Spring

The National Cherry Blossom Festival commemorates the 1912 gift of 3,000 cherry trees from Mayor Yukio Ozaki of Tokyo to the city of Washington, DC, and celebrates the enduring friendship between the people of the United States and Japan. Today’s Festival now spans four weeks and draws the attention of millions each year as we invite visitors and residents to enjoy diverse and creative programming promoting traditional and contemporary arts and culture, natural beauty, and community spirit. Help us keep our events primarily free and open to the public by donating to the Festival!

Protect the Cherry Trees

Cherry Blossom Tree

The National Cherry Blossom Festival is honored to partner with the Trust for the National Mall to support the care of the iconic cherry trees and the blooms we celebrate each spring. The Trust works all year long to raise awareness and financial support to help the National Park Service care for the cherry trees. Support the Trust for the National Mall’s Cherry Tree Endowment by visiting BloomCam.org to learn how you can help ensure the cherry trees continue to thrive for generations to come.

SHARE IN OUR COMMITMENT

The National Cherry Blossom Festival is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization. Your support helps make the Festival possible, keeping events and experiences primarily free and open to the public.  A portion of your direct donation to the Festival also supports The Trust for the National Mall’s Adopt a Cherry Tree program which provides the critical funds needed to care for the iconic trees year-round.
