Where: Lewis Ginter Botanical Garden: 1800 Lakeside Ave, Henrico, VA 23228
Join us this Sunday, April 28th, 1-3PM at Lewis Ginter Botanical Garden for the ultimate springtime experience! We have closed our online sales, but tickets may be purchased at the door for $45. Admission includes access to the Garden PLUS enjoy live music, tasty munchies, and refreshing mimosas! But it’s more than just a fun day out—it’s a chance to make a difference. Your attendance supports foster kids, transitioning youth, and adoptive families. Let’s celebrate and give back together!
Upon arrival to Lewis Ginter, please park in Visitor Lot B or C, enter through the Robins Visitor Center, let the admissions desk know you are there for the CHSVA Fundraiser, and they will let you into the garden free of charge. Go through the visitor center and head to the right, cross the lake bridge, and find us at the Bloemendaal House. There will be directional signs. If you would like to drop off a guest closer to the venue, there is a service road near the Bloemendaal House. Wheelchairs and strollers are also available to borrow from the visitor center.
- Be sure to stop at our registration table near the house to check in and get your nametag.
- Our event kicks off at 1:00PM, but you are welcome to arrive at the gardens early and/or stay late to enjoy the flowers.
- The silent auction will close at 2:10 PM so make sure to get your bids in early! At 3:00 PM, the lucky winners of the raffle and silent auction can claim and pay for their prizes.
- Gather near the Bloemendaal House at 2:15PM for a short program featuring stories from several people whose lives have been enriched by CHSVA.
The generous support from our donors and friends is pivotal. Please consider making a donation/pledge during the event to enable us to continue our mission of supporting children in foster care, transitioning youth, and adoptive families throughout the year.
