Welcome to Project Grow

DONATE

A garden is a community of microorganisms, insects, animals, plants, and people.  All parties interact constantly, some more actively than others, to build that community.  We at Project Grow would like to encourage as much active support on the part of individuals like you, who share our passion for gardening and community-building.  Whether your gift is one of time and energy, financial support, or an in-kind donation, we thank you for being part of making this Project Grow!

MATCHING DONATION OPPORTUNITY

In June, Project Grow was hand-selected from a number of local non-profits and invited by www.AllAtOnce.org to participate in the Jack Johnson concert on July 20 at the DTE Energy Music Theater.
 
The Jack Johnson World Tour experience is designed to build community and action. At the concert's interactive "Village Green" fans meet local non-profits and learn about making change within their 3 spheres of influence: their actions, their voice and their choices.
 
In addition to the opportunity to share our message with the public, The Johnson Ohana Charitable Foundation granted us a generous $500 donation. In order to inspire additional donations and community support, JOCF is also offering a matching donation opportunity and will match every dollar we are able to raise through the All At Once match from April 1-October 15, 2010 up to $2500.
 
This is the perfect time to help support Project Grows' educational programming and subsidized low-income scholarship program through this rare matching donation opportunity. We are a 501c3 organization and all monetary donations to Project Grow are tax deductible. Donations must be earmarked "All At Once".
