New benches in the Neff Park Marina!
As you may have noticed while strolling along the beautiful marina pier at Neff Park, the current benches need to be retired. The City of Grosse Pointe Foundation is raising money to support the purchase of four new benches.
Donating a bench through the City of Grosse Pointe Foundation is a tasteful way to pay tribute to a community member, volunteer, family member, or loved one. This is also a wonderful way to contribute to the beautification of our community.
Benches are 6 feet in length, surface mountable, and are made from aluminum with a black powdercoat finish.
Donations of all amounts will be accepted. All donations are tax-deductible, based on the Foundation’s 501(c)(3) status. If a donor contributes $2,000, they will be provided with the opportunity of placing a plaque with their personal inscription on one of the benches. Donations of $300 will be recognized with a brick in Neff Park as part of the ongoing Brick Recognition Program. No form is needed for making a donation. Please simply indicate “Marina Bench” on the memo line of the check or when submitting your PayPal payment.
Donations can be made by paying via PayPal on the Foundation’s website (http://cityofgpfoundation.org/membership-info/). Donors may also mail a check (payable to: The City of Grosse Pointe Foundation) to:
