Your support is vital to The Morton Arboretum.

Giving 2020
You can make a difference for the Arboretum during this difficult time.

During the early days of the coronavirus pandemic, the Arboretum found innovative ways to provide virtual and limited on-site access to trees and nature. Yet the financial impact of reduced operations has been substantial. Due to the ongoing pandemic, the Arboretum has been losing $40,000 per day in operating revenue as compared to a normal year, and revenue shortfalls will continue to be significant until full operations can resume. Increased philanthropic support is essential to help offset these losses.

With your year-end contribution, the Arboretum will remain a cherished place of enjoyment and respite, where trees and nature provide joy and rejuvenate the spirit of all who visit—especially during uncertain or stressful times. In addition, your gift enables the Arboretum to maintain important tree collections and beautiful natural landscapes, offer nature-based learning for all ages, and conduct its work as a world-renowned leader in tree science and conservation.

Please consider supporting The Morton Arboretum by making a gift today.
