Dear Friends of Klehm,
 
During this time of giving thanks for our blessings, please consider a gift to Klehm Arboretum & Botanic Garden.
 
We have made a commitment to provide you with experiences of the highest caliber, and we rely on contributions from our members and supporters to make it possible. This commitment is manifested in our award-winning grounds and programs, the product of the hard work of Klehm's dedicated staff, volunteers and your financial support.
 
In the past year Klehm broke ground on the sensational "Contemporary Perennial Garden," with cooperation and guidance of Roy Diblik, recognized perennial plant expert and designer, providing a new and dramatic entrance into the grounds from the Visitor Center.
 
Klehm offers a wide range of programs and events for our members and the Rockford community as a whole. These include a botanical lecture series, summer naturalist programs for adults and children and family fun at Autumn at the Arboretum. Additionally, the Arbor Dash Fun Run is raising awareness of the importance of trees and horticulture to ourselves and the community.
 
Your thoughtful, caring gift is an investment in the lives of thousands of people for whom Klehm is a place to gather, learn and enjoy the natural world. Please consider making a donation to Klehm Arboretum & Botanic Garden today.
 
Sincerely,
 
Daniel Riggs
Executive Director 
 
P.S. Thank you for supporting Klehm as we help transform the image of Rockford's southern gateway. There are great things to come!

 
Celebrate your love for others with a Legacy Gift to Klehm.
