your support matters
Gardens for Charlestown is an all-volunteer, 501(c)(3) organization that relies on people like you. Each year, our Members donate hundreds of volunteer hours to cultivating our green space and planning, hosting, and participating in events that are aligned with our three-fold mission. Your financial support ensures that we can continue to provide a beautiful and welcoming space in our neighborhood and offer events that have become a staple in this place we call home.
Gardens for Charlestown also partners with and assists other organizations that strive to advance the quality of life for those in our greater community. These organizations include The Coalition for a Resilient and Inclusive Waterfront, Friends of the John Harvard Mall, The Charlestown Preservation Society, and the Warren-Prescott Foundation.
Think of any gift that you can make to Gardens for Charlestown as an investment in a future that is brighter, healthier, more inclusive, and more beautiful.
