People often ask if I would accept donations to keep the site up and running. I enjoy working on the site, it's my favorite hobby. Therefore, I wouldn't feel right taking donations. Instead, may I suggest donating to one of these great restoration efforts?
| Cemetery Restoration - D.A.P Wirt County |
This nonprofit organization is looking for funding to help restore and preserve their local cemetery. The graves are some of the county's and city's founding fathers. They need to have monuments reset and would like to get name plates to document the monuments that are no longer legible.

| Rebuilding of the Royer Chapel |
Restoration donations for the rebuilding of Royer Chapel, which was destroyed by arson in December 2002. After the chapel is rebuilt, restoration work will begin on the cemetery next to the church.
