Help us reach our 2025 fundraising goals
With a successful fundraising effort at the end of 2024 we are in a solid spot for the start of 2025. Numerous improvements are already under way. For 2025 we are pushing the goal higher for or 2025 fundraising milestone. This year we aim to raise $5,000. Why the bump? We have some very ambitious projects in mind. As the trails settle in we have a good sense of problem areas and sections worth moving. This lets us finalize trail maps. Once finalized we plan to improve signage and trail markers. We think you are really going to love what we have in mind for trail signs. We need your help though. Dontations help offset the expected costs for these efforts.
Every dollar directly supports our all-volunteer organization and keeps the trails thriving for the community.
2024 Fundraising Goals Met!
We did it! Over $3,500 Raised!
We asked and you answered. We set $3,500 as a goal for fundraising in 2024. As of midnight on December 31st we raised $3,545. Some more donations snuck in just after which helps us kickstart our 2025 Fundraising goals.
Support Gardiner Trail Alliance this Giving Tuesday!
As the end of 2024 approaches, we want to express our heartfelt gratitude to everyone who has contributed to the growth and success of the Riverbend Trails at Gardiner Park. Seeing the increased use and love for the trails reminds us why our work matters—it’s a testament to the time, effort, and resources our volunteers and supporters have invested.
In the early stages, fundraising was challenging due to our pending 501(c)(3) non-profit status. During that time, several Gardiner Trail Alliance board members covered operating expenses like insurance, administrative fees, and trail improvement materials out of their own pockets to keep the vision alive.
We are thrilled to announce that our 501(c)(3) status is now fully approved!
With this milestone, we have ambitious goals for 2025 and we need your help to achieve them. This Giving Tuesday, we invite you to support our mission and help us raise $3,500 by the end of the year. Every dollar directly supports our all-volunteer organization and keeps the trails thriving for the community.
