SUMMARY:Giving Tuesday
DESCRIPTION:We know it has been a challenging year and there are a lot of options out there to support nonprofits in doing good for our communities. As you look for opportunities to spread generosity\, consider finding out more about how your generous support can have an impact in helping the Fort Tryon Park Trust protect\, preserve\, and enhance Fort Tryon Park’s 67 acres of fresh air\, beauty\, and respite! \nNew York City funding for its parks and green spaces is less than 1% of the budget each year. Private support of the Fort Tryon Park Trust’s conservancy work is critical to filling in the gaps of what City funding can provide\, so please give what you are able to show your love of Fort Tryon Park! \n#GivingTuesday donations through the end of the day on 11/30/21 will count double\, thanks to a matching grant from a generous Fort Tryon Park donor. \nDONATE HERE \ndr. ruth’s advice about donating
