Hi everyone!
Thank you to those of you who came to our Fall Harvest Community Input Meeting! We really appreciate the input and feedback we have received and look forward to hearing more from you. For those of you who could not attend or wanted to provide further feedback, please fill out our survey here: https://tc3m7jwtnmk.typeform.com/to/C0R7jsUf
We are taking feedback until the end of 2024 to help us enter 2025 with stronger, better programs!
This December, we would really appreciate your donation.
We have been hard at work on revitalizing our main garden ELSEE, which is celebrating its 25th year, engaging in streamlined design and build operations - which is now further enabled with a grant from the Rotary Club of San Jose for a second truck - and continuing to engage with the community in wonderful workshops and educational events, like our recent event at Patagonia and the Fall Harvest Festival at Russo McEntee school. Even with all of this forward momentum, design/build improvements, and no more “for lease” sign in front of the property (for now..) we are still really in need of financial help to keep our organization going: establishing a rent and operations fund, completing renovations, and other similar projects, which we estimate would require nearly $100,000.
Could we count on your support to help us reach this goal? We strive to continue to be as transparent to you all as possible and continue to work towards creating a resilient structure for our educational programming at ELSEE and beyond.
Help create and support the outdoor community center that you would like to see: a place that makes our community beautiful and unique. Thank you!
