About the Foundation

The Women’s Suffrage National Monument Foundation, a nonpartisan 501(c)3 nonprofit, was charged by Congress in Public Law 116-217 and Public Law 118-226 to design and build a monument on the National Mall to honor the suffragists who fought for women’s right to vote, catalyzed a movement for change, and transformed American democracy.

Mission

Build a transformative monument on the National Mall that fosters a deeper understanding of the women who shaped American democracy and inspires the continued pursuit of liberty and equality for all.

Vision

A National Mall that permanently weaves women’s triumphs into the monumental fabric of the nation’s capital.

We have never been silent—but women have often been silenced, their stories too frequently untold. We must tell their stories and memorialize the women who led the single largest expansion of voting rights in American history and set precedents in protest, civic organization, and societal change.
