What a wonderful response for Giving Tuesday after 4 p.m. with generous donations totaling about $4,000 during these hours. It's not to late to help us reach our goal!
From now through Tuesday, November 30th, the Anne Springs Close Greenway is celebrating the global day of giving known as Giving Tuesday. Inspired by this years theme of Together We Give, we invite you to join us as we raise funds for the Leroy Springs & Co. Bridge Program which provides access to the Greenway through educational and recreational scholarships.
Access to clean and safe spaces to be active and healthy in the outdoors is not equitable for everyone in our community. Connecting children and families to nature is not just our mission, but our duty as a trusted leader in our community. We know that getting outside and being active in nature helps support health, cognitive and physical development and reinforces critical themes that our students are learning in their classrooms each and every day. Our land is protected in perpetuity, and we endeavor to ensure that our gates will always stay open wide for everyone, regardless of financial circumstance.
The Leroy Springs & Co. Bridge Program is how we accomplish this goal, set forth by our founder and namesake, the late Ms. Anne Springs Close. Your support today will help us reach our goals.
