Annual Fund

Plant a seed... And watch us bloom! Through your gifts to the Annual Fund, the Chicago Botanic Garden continues to enrich the lives of an ever-widening circle of people. Because you share your bounty with us, we have an abundance of beauty, knowledge and natural resources to share with the world. Keep our garden blooming.

How can you help?

	New gardens blossom Our 23 display gardens and three natural areas offer visitors beauty, tranquility, magnificent views and space for quiet reflection.
	Visitors delight Market days and antique fairs. Seasonal festivals and a “cross-country” garden railway. Our ever-changing exhibits and events keep visitors coming back for new experiences.
	Education thrives Learn to grow an orchid … or to draw one. Indulge your hobby or earn a professional certificate. The School of the Chicago Botanic Garden is a total learning environment.
	Communities flourish With a burgeoning crop of community gardens, library reading gardens and public school gardens, we sow seeds of knowledge and fulfillment all across Chicago.
	Research bears fruit Can we save some of the 200,000 plant species scientists predict will soon be lost? We will, with a multitude of strong and growing programs in plant conservation and research.
	We enrich the world With international symposia we bring the world’s experts to the Garden. With our Web site we bring the Garden to the world. Firmly rooted, broadly branching—the Garden embraces the Earth.
