    • When your monthly gift is made, you will receive a receipt of your donation. Once a year, we will send you a record of your giving history for tax purposes.


 

Matching Gifts will increase your membership level! Many generous corporations in the Bay Area take part in a matching gift program. If yours does, you can upgrade your membership level. Ask your employer for a matching gift form, fill it out and attach it to your membership information. 

San Francisco Botanical Garden Membership contributions are tax-deductible within the limits prescribed by law.
