GA Gives Day
Show your support for Woodlands Garden during GA Gives Day 2023.
GA Gives Day is on Tuesday, November 28th this year. People all over the state will make easy, secure online donations to their favorite charities all through the month, leading up to this day. Woodlands is excited to be a part of this month-long marathon of generosity, and would love to have your support. We have until midnight on November 30th to get to our goal of $5,000. All donations (including those that can take us over and above our goal amount) will go towards the maintenance and upkeep of this public green space.
Every little bit helps us, so make your contribution today!
