Foundation Receives More Than $17,500 During GiveBIG

Support the Arboretum during the region’s largest single-day giving event!

The tally is in! The Arboretum Foundation received $17,575 from 52 individual donors during the Seattle Foundation’s second annual GiveBIG on May 2. That’s more than triple what we received during last year’s GiveBIG event! Thank you to all those who gave this year. Your generous donations will go a long way towards keeping the Arboretum vital and beautiful. 

We have yet to find out how much of the Seattle Foundation’s “stretch pool” of matching funds we will be receiving. We will let you that figure as soon as we can.
