Contribute to the Botanic Garden
The Smith College Botanic Garden thrives on the support we receive from alumnae and friends. Donations of every size have an impact and make a difference!
Your donation supports the plant collections and horticultural displays, educational and outreach programming, internship opportunities for students, and preservation of the historic Olmsted campus landscape.
Donations and income from endowments established by generous donors strengthen every aspect of our mission.
There are several different ways to support us:
- Become a member of the Friends of the Botanic Garden
- Make a memorial or honorial contribution
- Set up an endowed fund
- Remember us with a bequest
- Matching Gifts — If you or your spouse work for a company that matches donations to non-profit organizations, you can easily multiply your gift
- Smith College accepts gifts of cash and stock, mutual funds or other securities. Learn more about the different ways to give.

All contributions to the Botanic Garden are tax deductible to the full extent allowed by law.
All alumnae receive class credit for donations to the Botanic Garden.
