naples garden clubtm SUPPORT YOUR COMMUNITY AND PROMOTE YOUR BUSINESS For more than 60 years Naples Garden Club has carefully curated beautifully designed and impressively decorated homes and gardens to showcase at its much anticipated House & Garden Tour. The homes, selected to inspire the 1,000 guests fortunate enough to secure a ticket to this sold-out event, provide the wow factor that makes the tour a highlight of the season. We invite you to join us in presenting the tour by becoming a sponsor or advertiser or donor. You will promote your business to the 1,000 affluent guests as well as to the Naples Garden Club membership and, at the same time, help your community. Last year we were able to award $93,000 in scholarships and grants that benefited foster and abandoned children and financed research in plant science. Our grants also provided gardening opportunities and garden trips for members of Naples Senior Center, created summer internships at Naples Botanical Garden and made college and camp scholarships available. We richly reward our sponsors with ads in our House & Garden Tour Booklet that is distributed to all our guests and members. We encourage our members to patronize our sponsors, advertisers and donors by listing them on our website. With your help Naples Garden Club can continue to support children in need, students, the elderly, and the hungry while beautifying our community for the enjoyment of all. Please partner with us as a sponsor, donor, or advertiser. Thank you for considering our request. Sincerely, Sandy Lasch Sharon Hildebrandt Lydia Galton President dlasch_swfla1@comcast.net House & Garden Tour Chair samacattack@yahoo.com Development Chair lgalton@comcast.net
