Support Ethel L. Dupar’s Fragrance Garden!

Your donation will support a unique, completely accessible garden experience for blind and Deaf-Blind people in your community.

This project is so precious because of the exceptional experience it offers to individuals with visual disabilities. Here, people who are blind, Deaf-Blind, and blind with developmental disabilities all have access to the scents and textures of a garden designed just for them.
You can help complete this project and preserve this valuable resource for generations to come. In doing so, you will make a difference for the better in blind and Deaf-Blind people’s lives.

Recent studies have shown that exposure to gardens helps to relieve stress, speed recovery, and promote good health. Ethel L. Dupar’s Fragrant Garden was created specifically for blind and Deaf-Blind people, giving them the chance to access the health benefits of herbs, flowers, and other garden blooms.

Your gift will help conserve and expand this special place. We are currently in the midst of renovating our garden. Your support will help us see this project through and sustain this unique community resource for blind, Deaf-Blind, and sighted people alike.

Your support keeps this vital project going! Your gift of $20 provides plants with scented flowers such as lilies and rose bushes, $50 contributes to creating quality braille signs so that blind people can learn more about the plants in the garden, and $100 will help to purchase a tool shed where volunteers can keep tools needed to renovate and maintain our fragrant garden.

Won’t you join us in continuing to provide this haven for blind and Deaf-Blind people? Even a modest contribution will buy hundreds of seeds for the garden. In supporting this project, you are contributing to improving the quality of life for disabled people throughout the Seattle area.
