Join the Lafayette Square Conservancy

You can be a part of the LSC as we continue our efforts to preserve and improve Lafayette Square. There are various ways to participate.

DONATE

The LSC has been able to achieve remarkable improvements to Lafayette Square thanks to the generosity of people like you. With no paid staff, only a minimal amount of our funds are used for administrative purposes. You can be assured that your donation will be directed to where it is needed most: sprinkler repairs; buying mulch, fertilizer, trash bags, etc.; additional plantings; aerating the new turf and providing specialized lawn care; among other regular maintenance needs.

Please visit the Donations page for details on how to make a donation directly to the Lafayette Square Conservancy.

BUY OUR LOGO GEAR

Show your support by purchasing and wearing our LSC logo gear. We have tee shirts, aprons and bags for sale. Look for our tent in the Artists’ Village at the Wednesday Concerts. And coming soon, we will be offering these items for purchase on-line.

VOLUNTEER

If you are interested in volunteering to help improve Lafayette Square please contact us. The LSC has opportunities for volunteers in a variety of capacities.

  • Planting & Cleaning
    The Conservancy hosts clean up and planting days every few months or so to take care of planting, pruning, weeding, raking, mulching and other beautification. We provide water, snacks and tools, just bring your gloves! The LSC will happily verify participation of students looking for public service hours. If you are interested in receiving notification of cleaning days, please contact us to let us know you are interested!
  • Adopt-a-Bed
    The LSC is looking for groups or individuals to adopt the flower beds around the statues and the four corner flower beds. Clean, weed free beds are beautiful.
  • Litter Pick-Up
    Nothing detracts from the beauty of Lafayette Square more than litter and trash. Bring your gloves and a trash bag and do a “litter walk” around the Square. It really makes a difference!
  • Special Event Assistance
    The Conservancy periodically needs assistance at events in the Square such as help staffing our Artists’ Village Tent during the Spring and Fall Wednesday Concerts Series.

To volunteer for any of these, please contact us. And thanks in advance!
