It just breaks our hearts….
Seeing toppled stones like this at Historic Concordia Cemetery. The volunteers here work so hard to maintain these grounds, but are unable to right these heavy stones manually. Additionally, the Fellowship of the Dig works all season to collect and share the information we find and these stones are lying face-down, so the information cannot be seen.
To help us fix this, we need your help. We need a piece of equipment – an aluminum frame and winch –that will allow us to raise toppled stones. So, on this Giving Tuesday, we are appealing to our friends and supporters to please donate whatever you can to help us raise the funds to acquire this equipment. Please show your support for all our volunteers do!
You can donate via PayPal (you do not need to have a PayPal account) here: https://concordiabuffalo.org/donate
Or if you prefer to donate by check, please send it to Concordia Foundation, PO Box 744, Buffalo NY 14217-0744.
Please indicate in comments or notes that your donation is for the winch; if you prefer to donate for the cemetery’s general upkeep and needs, then please note that.
From all the volunteers at Concordia, Thank you for your generosity in this Joyous season!
