Thanks to a $130,800 grant from the Ontario Trillium Foundation, Parkwood Estate will be able to implement changes to ensure barrier-free access for people of all abilities to the historic gardens and grounds.
Parkwood is thankful to the sponsors who have already committed to our projects in 2010 . Their generous support is bringing Parkwood and the community together in celebrating the innovation of Sam McLaughlin and his lasting legacy of inspiration.
Now and Forever Campaign
To all the individuals, corporations, government agencies and service clubs who responded so generously with support for Parkwood we want to send a huge thank-you. Parkwood’s Board of Directors, staff and volunteers all helped make our Now and Forever Campaign a great success.
Of the $5 Million we raised, $2 Million was used for urgently needed Landscape Conservation, $1.2 for Heating/Ventilation/Air Conditioning improvements, to ensure conservation of the mansion, and $ 250,000 was used to establish our Endowment Fund, to provide interest for property maintenance.
