Our 75th Anniversary: Building a secure future

The academic year 2011-12 marks the 75th anniversary of the UC Davis Arboretum, founded in 1936 to strengthen the biological sciences at the University of California at Davis. We are planning a year of festivities to celebrate the collections and gardens of the Arboretum and to thank the members, donors, volunteers, and other supporters who keep this wonderful place growing.

One of our main goals for the anniversary year and beyond will be to ensure a strong future for the Arboretum. We have launched the Warren G. Roberts Arboretum Legacy Society to recognize people who have created endowments or included the Arboretum in their estate planning.

If you would like to make a gift in honor of the Arboretum’s 75th anniversary, please contact Suzanne Ullensvang at (530) 752-8324 or sullensvang@ucdavis.edu.

Other important ways that you can support the Arboretum include:
• Joining the Friends of the UC Davis Arboretum
• Making a donation to the Arboretum Enhancement Fund
• Honoring a loved one with a commemorative or memorial contribution
• Dedicating a ceramic mosaic tile or tree plaque
• Including the Arboretum in your estate plans
• Volunteering your time.

Thank you for your support!
