The Hungarian Community has one of the largest gardens in the Federation of Gardens. Just published, the 2009 version of the Hungarian Cultural Garden brochure tells the brief history of the this garden and provides an opportunity for anyone, individually or through an organization, to help support the ongoing work of restoration and renovation.

    As written in the latest version of the HCG brochure (click to download):

    

    We have the responsibility to do what we can to preserve and renovate this priceless treasure. Although we have started the work of renovation, and rededicated ourselves and the Hungarian community to doing it, we still have much work ahead of us to  repair the many decades of deterioration. The 70 years of weathering and inaction took a severe toll on our beautiful garden.

    In preparation for the rededication of the  Hungarian Cultural Garden on August 24, 2008 on the occasion of its 70th anniversary, we were able to make significant headway in removing overgrowth and stabilizing some of the main structural elements. 

    There is still much to do to renovate the garden to its previous grandeur. We need your help and donations to keep going on our work to eliminate the deterioration. We started Phase I, weed and overgrowth control, in late 2007. We completed a major structural repair project in late 2008. There is still a lot of work that needs to be done this year and in coming years.

    We have a number of fundraising events planned over the coming months to help finance the urgently needed work.
