I emailed Madame tussauds and was able to get some tickets donated. They were pretty quick with a reply as well. I used this email: This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.

Sure we are competing with each other sometimes to get the donations, but we are also helping to give back to others, which is kind of what we are asking all these companies to do! This is where I've send requests out for this year so far. Some of them I always get turned down for, but some are so exciting to get positive responses from!!
Sorry I don't have the links to them -
can you tell us which one of these places said yes?
In regards to DC items, I live just outside DC and have not had any luck in getting anything but the Spy Museum. I had no luck with Madame Tussaud's either. There are a lot of schools in the DC area as well as surrounding counties so I think it is hard to come by.
Flags that are flown over the US Capital can usually be purchased through your local Congressman. If you have a specific date and enough notice, they can usually even do that for a special occasion.
