Do toilets and door knobs make good gifts? We think so!

This holiday season, when you give the value of one of the restoration items listed below to Blue Ridge Discovery Center, you are making an impact for generations to come. What’s more, these contributions will be matched dollar-for-dollar by the Cabell Foundation in support of BRDC’s Capital Campaign for the Center.

Whether you’re fond of the bark siding or cherish the thought of restoring an historic window that will soon overlook children observing butterflies in a native plant community or studying wetland ecology, there is an element and donation value to match your level of support.

When you visit our Donation Page, consider giving the value* of one of the following restoration items for yourself or in honor of a loved one:

· 2 Square Feet of Floor Refinishing $5
