November 1, 2020 by Steve Hoffman

UPDATE 12/17: Thanks to your support, we have reached our initial Matching Gift Challenge goal! However — we are excited to announce that we are now matching gifts up to $60,000, thanks to additional contributions from the Allerton Park Advisory Board! Now, your gift before December 31 will still be doubled! Give now and help us raise $120,000 to support public programs, care of the Formal Gardens, natural areas restoration, updates to the Mansion, and more. Make your donation here and double your impact today!
————————————————————————————–

We are excited to announce a unique opportunity to support all the things you love about Allerton! A Friend of Allerton has generously offered to match every donation received from November 1 – December 15, up to $25,000! So, when you make a gift between now and December 15, 2020, it will be matched dollar-for-dollar. Your $25 becomes $50… $100 becomes $200… you get the idea! Donate now!

With your help, a total of $50,000 could go to support public programs, care of the Formal Gardens, restoration of the natural areas, updates to the Mansion, and more.

Gifts to Allerton ensure we can continue to educate and inspire others. We are truly grateful for the hundreds of people who choose to invest in our future. Please consider taking this opportunity to double your impact and sustain the peace, joy, and magic of Allerton – click here to learn more about making a gift!
