Continuing years of support, The Woman’s Club of Vista GFWC recently awarded a grant of $1,500 to Alta Vista Botanical Gardens in Vista, located inside Brengle Terrace Park.
Eleven local non-profits received grant funds from The Woman’s Club this year. The Club’s annual Donation Day had to be canceled, but celebrations and thanks came in from organizations across North County.
Over the years, donations from The Woman’s Club have aided the development of Alta Vista Botanical Gardens. The Club’s donations have funded a pond and stream project using proceeds from curbside recycling, funded a rose-covered gazebo for the Club’s 100th Anniversary, and have provided free and reduced-fee nature field trips for disadvantaged students.
This year’s donation will support two projects at the Gardens:
Pathways will be upgraded to improve handicapped access and handrails will be installed where needed for child and elderly safety.
And field trip fees with Farmer Jones will be reduced for disadvantaged students in Vista.
Alta Vista Botanical Gardens thanks The Woman’s Club of Vista GFWC for this generous gift and continued support!
