Madison College Centennial Tribute Gardens
Join Madison College in paving the way to a new century of promise! The Madison College Centennial Tribute Gardens offer you an opportunity to celebrate friends, family and colleagues, to recognize a teacher or mentor or to remember a special place or event.
The Centennial Tribute Gardens have been established in three locations at Truax: The Gateway, the Health Education building and the Protective Services building.
Your tax-deductible gift also will help complete the historic Truax Campus transformation.
GENERAL CONTRIBUTION
Tax-deductible contributions in any amount can be made to the Madison College Centennial Tribute Gardens fund that will be used to improve the landscape with trees and other plantings, lighting, water fixtures and more.
GARDEN SITTING AREAS
Small areas including lighting and water features are available for dedication and can be designated to reflect the donor’s intent. Contact the Foundation Office for details. Donor requests for specific locations will be considered according to availability.
Donations may be made in one payment or pledged over a year. The addition of some dedicated elements, such as pavers will be made to the garden on an annual basis, and larger features will be dedicated when at least one-half of the donor commitment has been received. Your tax-deductible gift may be made by check or credit card or through payroll deduction (checks should be made payable to the Madison College Foundation). Please complete the Centennial Tribute Gardens donor form and submit to the Madison College Foundation.
