Annual Giving
 Annual Fund
Your contribution to the
PHS Annual Fund provides much needed unrestricted support for our critical program and services, impacting the lives of thousands of people
living in our community.
Each year, PHS invests
the proceeds from the Philadelphia Flower Show toward this goal, but these funds alone cannot support all the ways in which PHS is helping to create a better community for residents and visitors. Annual Fund gifts are 100% tax deductible.
We are pleased to offer two options to make your donation:

Monthly Gift Program
Our Monthly Giving Program, which allows donors to make monthly installments, is an easy way to increase the size of your gift by making monthly installments. Each month, the amount you designate will be charged to your credit card. A letter of acknowledgement will be sent after each installment. Monthly gifts to the Annual Fund are 100% tax deductible.
Matching Gifts
If your employer has a matching gifts program, your gift to PHS
could be doubled or tripled. Matching gift forms are generally available
through your employer's human resources department.
Appreciated Securities
Gifts of securities are simple to donate and may provide favorable tax benefits. Appreciated securities, held for more than one year, may be deducted from taxable income without paying a capital gains tax on the appreciated portion of the gift. Gifts of securities are credited on the date of transfer to PHS and are valued at the mean of the high and low quoted sales price on the day of the gift. Gifts of stock to the Annual Fund are 100% tax deductible.

Tribute Gifts
Perfect for birthdays, anniversaries, weddings, graduations, or as an expression of sympathy, a tribute gift is a wonderful way to honor family and friends throughout the year. A personal acknowledgment is sent to the family or individual being honored. Tribute gifts are 100% tax deductible.
Make an unrestricted gift to the Annual Fund which supports PHS programs and services throughout the Philadelphia area including: park revitalization, neighborhood tree plantings, community garden support, civic space maintenance, and educational offerings.
Plant a tree in support of TreeVitalize, an initiative that supports the following projects:
Riparian Tree Plantings – A gift of $25 will plant one small (3 – 4 feet) native tree along streams in Fairmount Park, and public lands or private protected lands in Bucks, Chester, Delaware and Montgomery counties.
Neighborhood Tree Plantings – A gift of $200 will support the purchase of a large (8-10 feet) tree that will be planted in a Philadelphia neighborhood park.
Please note: Attaching name plaques to trees is not a recommended best practice. Not having name plaques allows 100% of your gift to be directed to the planting and care of trees.
