Our Annual Fundraiser


Hi Garden Friends,

In the past 5 years, since we have been fundraising with Seed Money, we have been able to build a shed, redo all the irrigation, and build a screened enclosure for one of the large raised garden beds. We could not have done it without people like you who care about the community garden!

With this year's funds, a revitalization will be initiated. Old hoses and tools will be replaced. Garden beds will be renewed with fresh compost, and new beds will be built. Outreach to the community will be invigorated.  Children will be back playing in the dirt.  ... So much to do!


Donations may be made starting at noon EST (10:00 AM Arizona time) on November 15th. The donation period lasts until noon EST (10:00 AM Arizona time) on December 15th.

DONATE HERE

Seedmoney.org is our sponsoring 501(c)3 organization for this 30-day period so your donations are tax-deductible during this time.

100% of your donations go directly to the Ahwatukee Community Garden with no fees or overhead costs.

Extra grant money will be awarded to our garden if we are one of the top projects to receive more donations at the beginning of the campaign.

This is the only fundraiser we have done for the garden in the past 5 years.

We thank you so much for your past and continued generous support!
