Share the Gift Fund

Donate Now

The Share the Gift Fund was begun in 2008 to help bring the Gardens to others who wish to enrich their Gardens experience. Unrestricted annual gifts to this Fund allow us to invest in creating programs that have relevance in our community, and supports critical needs of the Gardens throughout the year.

Your gift will impact the lives of others. Here are some of our current visitor needs that your Share the Gift donation can impact.

• Your gift of $50 or more (or a $5/month recurring gift) will enable a family in the community to enjoy the Gardens for one year. We designate 5% of our memberships each year as “Share the Gift” memberships to families going through various challenges. The gift of a serene and inspiring garden will go a long way in making their lives “a bit better and more beautiful.”
• Your $100 gift (or a $10/month recurring gift) will underwrite the costs for 20 children to participate in the Gardens’ annual Earth Day Celebration. This program is part of our “Grow Outside” initiative to encourage young people’s appreciation and respect for the environment.
• Your gift of $250 or more (or a $25/month recurring gift) helps us maintain our historic landscape and keep our Gardens thriving 365 days a year. Unrestricted gifts such as these are critical sources of income that help bridge the funding gap, as gate admissions, retail income and endowment income are no longer adequate to sustain the costs of maintaining this National Historic Landmark.

Unrestricted gifts to this fund support critical programming needs of the Gardens and are tax-deductible.
