We have tried four different times to apply for grants from various agencies to help us purchase trees.  With the help of the PTSA we came up with our own fundraiser to move this project forward.  We estimated the cost of the trees, soil supplements,tools, markers, and edging into the donation requests.  Thus to donate a tree to the school we ask for $200 and an island of three $500.00. All contributions are made through the Rochester Community Foundation.

We will continue to update our list of generous donors who make this project possible.
