Fundraising

Donations to Growing Home are MATCHED!

OOO! OOO! Check this out- Growing Home has a MATCHING GRANT program.  This means you donate $20, Growing Home gets $40. You donate $250, Growing Home gets $500.  

Just think, for that $250 donation, you’ll supplement the cost of veggies for 60 families, furnish the supplies for 10 healthy cooking workshops, OR provide 5 kinds of vegetable seeds for the job training programs.  Pretty slick deal, if you ask us!  

Mushers & Volunteers, Go Forth and Fundraise.

Fundraising efforts have grown with every Chiditarod, trumping the results of previous years by epic proportions. Last year, teams & checkpoints raised over $18,000 in funds, and this year, we could hardly keep the masses calm until our 2012 charities were announced.

Chiditarod VII to benefit Growing Home, 8th Ward Community Garden

A new partnership will assist establishment of an organic community garden in the 8th Ward. Alderman Michelle Harris (8th) will be joining with Growing Home and the Chiditarod to help local residents pursue community development, job training and urban agriculture in the Cottage Grove Heights neighborhood.
