Support the Arboretum

Washington Park Arboretum plays an important role in the lives of many Seattle residents and is a valuable environmental, educational, recreational, and cultural resource for the Pacific Northwest region. There are many ways you can help to sustain and preserve the Arboretum, from becoming a member of the Arboretum Foundation to purchasing a commemorative tree. Please join the Arboretum’s extended family and help protect this treasured community asset and urban ecosystem.

Ways You Can Help:

• Become a member: Foundation members enjoy a range of great benefits while helping to sustain the Arboretum and its educational programs. Memberships also make great gifts.
• Make a Donation: Support the Foundation’s important initiatives through individual giving, planned giving, the dedication of a commemorative bench or tree, and more. Learn about the Arbor Circle, our major gifts club. We also have opportunities for corporate and foundation support.
• Support our capital campaign: The Foundation raises important funds for large-scale capital projects such as the new Pacific Connections Garden that are an integral part of the Arboretum’s master plan for renewal. Help revitalize the Arboretum for generations to come; a variety of recognition opportunities are available.
• Volunteer: Make a valuable contribution as an Arboretum Foundation volunteer. Help maintain the Arboretum grounds, assist at special events, staff the gift shop, run our on-site nurseries, and more.
