Toronto Botanical Garden relies on the support of individuals, corporations and foundations to maintain and operate the gardens and to offer an engaging botanical and cultural experience that enriches the lives of its citizens. Collectively, we are able to educate over 6,000 children and 10,000 adults every year on important environmental and horticultural issues that affect our community.
Over 95% of our operating budget is self-generated through course revenues, membership fees, special events and through the generous support of many donors.
Donations
A donation of any amount is a greatly appreciated and goes to support the many wonderful programs and gardens at the TBG. All donations are acknowledged and donations over $15 receive a charitable tax receipt for the full amount.
