The Bells of the Real Bedford Falls

In Frank Capra’s inspiring movie Its a Wonderful Life, the message is that each person has value and everyone makes a difference. At some point in each person’s life, there is someone who has touched you and changed your life forever. An angel sent at the right time. A parent or grandparent, a child, a veteran, someone you barely know but who inspired you with their kindness.

“The Bells of the Real Bedford Falls” provides an opportunity to have a bell rung for that special person.

With a donation of $20, you will receive a certificate with the honoree’s name as well as your own. At the close of the “It’s A Wonderful Life’ celebration on December 15, 2019, the bells throughout the Real Bedford Falls will ring as we remember those without whom our world would be a very different place. As Zuzu says, “Every time a bell rings an angel gets its wings.”

Proceeds support The Seneca Falls It’s A Wonderful Life Museum and enables us to ensure that admission will always be free.
