AN EVENING IN THE GARDEN | At Meadowlark Botanical Gardens


Thank you for attending NVCT's Annual Fundraising Gala!
June 8, 2023 proved to be a fantastic night of celebration of Northern Virginia's conservation heroes with delicious food, drink, and fellowship. Due to your love and support for nearby nature, we exceeded a $30,000 matching challenge of a generous anonymous donor that will help us to overcome obstacles to protect our communities' natural open spaces.
Your support is truly Heroic!
