PCA Endowment Program: Assuring the Future

PCA’s Endowment Program’s objective is to ensure the arboretum and trail is sustained in the future. We want to protect that the natural environment that our wonderful volunteers and donors’ efforts today are forever. We have set an initial goal of funding $625,000 through endowments and are pleased to share that we are currently at $367,000, including our general endowments, plus our family named endowments.

Every fall, we offer our trail enthusiasts the opportunity to contribute to our general endowments. The past two years, the following have contributed:
