It's time for our annual donation drive, and this year we want you to give until it feels good! We know you value Titanic Memorial Park. Please consider a gift that leaves you feeling good about your contribution to the park's upkeep and restoration.
Our goal for this year is $5,000. An anonymous donor has pledged a dollar-for-dollar match, up to $1,000, so if you act now, your donation will be doubled!
Here's how we plan to use donated funds in 2022:
-
Maintain the demonstration garden and planters.
- We'll replace the shrubs that didn't make it in the first year in the Demonstration Garden, and add bulbs to the garden
- We'll continue our annual planting and maintenance of the planters
-
Install displays in park for the 110th anniversary of the sinking of the RMS Titanic.
- In conjunction with the 110th anniversary in April 2022, we plan to have displays throughout the park that tell the stories of people who lost their lives, and those who survived, the greatest peacetime maritime disaster in the world.
Not sure how much will feel good for you? Here are some examples of specific items in our budget to guide your decision:
| Donating: | Will let us: |
| $25 | Replace one shrub in the Demonstration Garden |
| $60 | Maintain one planter annually |
| $100 | Provide one interpretive poster for the Titanic 110th anniversary display in the park |
| $500 | Install a flag display for the 110th anniversary, telling the stories of survivors and victims of the sinking |
Our donation drive runs through the end of October. Please plan to make a gift today!
