BE A PART OF THE WOODLANDS
SUPPORT THE SPACE YOU LOVE
We invite you to be a part of keeping this site free and accessible by helping us reach our $50,000 end-of-year fundraising goal. All of the funds raised through this campaign support the management of The Woodlands, a 54-acre National Historic Landmark District in West Philadelphia.
Thank you for thinking of us as you consider your end-of-year giving.
Dear Friends,
Across our community and our country, we’ve shared in losses this year—of loved ones, of resources, of a sense of stability. I don’t take it for granted that when seeking a reprieve, people come here to ground themselves.
The Woodlands witnesses grief and growth in tandem every day. Visitors walk the brick paths, pause under century-old trees, and find comfort in stillness. Life continues in the cemetery. Neighbors gather at picnic tables, runners exhale, students study, flowers unfurl, foxes hunt, and birds nest. As evidenced each year by the Ozark witch hazel, our first to bloom in the depths of winter, regeneration happens here.
Our greatest value lies in being an open green space where people reset and revive. Whether you visit once a day or once a year, this layered landscape offers peace and connection. When you give to The Woodlands, you support this legacy.
Please consider making a gift today to help care for this remarkable place.
With gratitude,
Jessica Baumert, Executive Director
& The Woodlands Board and Staff
