Corporate Partnership

As a 100% community supported non-profit organization, support from businesses like you helps us care for our nationally recognized plant collections, as well as help us offer free educational, recreational and cultural programming for our northeast Wisconsin community and beyond. Your corporate citizenship also gives us the opportunity to bring engaging exhibits, concerts and other unique events to the Garden, while connecting visitors of all ages with nature and the outdoors in every season.

Our Corporate Partnership Programs offer large and small businesses around our community an opportunity to receive recognition and a broad range of professional benefits. Rooted by a local initiative and embraced by northeast Wisconsin and beyond, a partnership with the Garden can increase your company’s visibility, help your business grow and show the community you care. Build relationships with clients, conduct business in a setting that stimulates creativity and team-building and provide employees with a beautiful family-friendly destination.

The joy you find in the Garden can last more than a lifetime.

We all want to share what gives us joy. We want to make an impact that lasts. It’s human nature.

For many of us, the Garden is a place to enjoy all seasons of the year and all seasons of our lives. Your connection to the Garden is timeless when you create a legacy gift, ensuring future generations can experience the amazing beauty and adventure the Garden offers. Essentially, with a legacy gift, you share the joy you experienced at the Garden with countless future guests and members.

Any time is the right time to show your love of the Garden. What will your legacy be?

You don’t need abundant resources to show you care for the Garden, and your legacy gift doesn’t need to impact your financial situation today.

Whether you wish to put your donation to work today or benefit the Garden after your lifetime, you can find a charitable plan that lets you provide for your needs today and support the Garden. Become part of Green Bay Botanical Garden’s Perennial Legacy Society, a community of generous and visionary supporters who have pledged a legacy gift to the Garden. Their gifts promise a future of amazing beauty and adventure to delight their loved ones, future visitors and the entire community for years to come.

Simply complete the form below. Any information about your gift will remain confidential (unless you indicate otherwise) and does not create a binding obligation.
