Ensure your legacy will always be in bloom through a bequest.
Making a planned gift to Hudson River Park Friends is a profound investment in the beauty and sustainability of New York City. Remembering Hudson River Park Friends in your estate is one of the most significant gifts you can make to future New Yorkers and millions of visitors.
By making a bequest, your legacy will always be:

- Planting, blooming, rooting and renewing. The Park provides four seasons of award-winning gardens and landscapes for your loved ones to enjoy, including roughly 2,000 trees that keep New York City green and growing
