501(c)3 status updates
As you can see, donating to Arb Detroit is not enabled yet. We are a month into the application approval process for our 501(c)3 status, which will make it possible for your donation dollars to be tax deductible.
This doesn’t mean that we are not yet a non-profit. Our Articles of incorporation and Bylaws were submitted in 2018, and we have regular board meetings. We are seeking grants and volunteers, building the website and working on outreach, and generally are very excited to talk about trees.
Please reach out with any questions, concerns, support or ideas for connections to the arboretum via the contact page.
