Gifts under $500 can be recognized by purchasing a brick which will form the "root system" of the Tree of Hope. Bricks will vary in size and style and may include opportunities for personalized "child art." The Tree of Hope is named in honor of Amber Hope Lindig and will remind us of overcoming obstacles to reach our hopes and dreams. Amber is a little girl with multiple disabilities who inspired her parents, Darin and Angela Lindig to lead the effort to bring Adventure Island to our community. She, along with her two younger siblings who do not have disabilities, hope for a place where all children can learn, play and grow together. Your monetary contributions as well as in-kind services will help make this dream a reality!

Donations to Adventure Island Playground are tax deductible.
