Cornerstone Society

Be A Leader.

Just as a cornerstone symbolizes a strong foundation for a building, our leadership giving community, the Cornerstone Society, recognizes that its donors epitomize the foundation of Historic Annapolis.

The Cornerstone Society’s visionary members bring distinction to Historic Annapolis by providing support for our organization’s highest and at times urgent priorities through exemplary, unrestricted annual support of $1,000 or more. This giving community has a significant impact on our ability to Preserve, Protect, and Connect in a relevant and timely way.
