Friends of Wangari Gardens is the support team for the park. We are currently applying for 501c3 non-profit status* to help us accomplish the following mission:
The Friends of Wangari Gardens is a community-led non-profit that promotes neighborhood enrichment and environmental sustainability by protecting, managing, and increasing accessibility to Wangari Gardens, a public garden and park, while working with local communities to develop and implement educational, recreational, therapeutic, environmental, and agricultural programs throughout the DC area.
Stay tuned!
*Please note: Any donations you make to Wangari Gardens are currently processed through our fiscal agent, Groundwork Anacostia River, DC, a 501c3 organization. Therefore, anything you donate now is tax deductible too!
So happy to see the garden and the other plans for the space. I walk by on my way to and from work each day at the hospital and look forward to seeing your garden grow!
