When you participate in the Central Park Conservancy Adopt-A-Bench program, you are helping to maintain Central Park’s 10,000 benches. We are delighted to offer you the opportunity to adopt a Central Park bench. For a tax-deductible contribution of $20,000, the Conservancy will install a personalized plaque on the bench of your choosing. The bench must be selected and placed on hold by a Conservancy staff member prior to the contribution being made. A bench may be held for up to 7 business days while the donor coordinates the contribution. Once the Conservancy receives your endowment contribution, your bench adoption will be confirmed.
