Something for nothing? I hope not...
Apr 4, 2006
As the spring/summer rapidly approach, I'd like to remind everyone who loves NYC of one very worthy cause. One which our involvement is limited to having fun:
Central Park.
Almost everyone living in NYC, or visiting NYC has likely experienced the sheer brilliance that is Central Park. Well, like everything else, it costs money to keep Central Park in the shape that it's in. If you've ever wondered how so many services are provided, without having to buy a ticket to get in; in addition to tax dollars, Central Park's funding is supplemented by donations (so that we don't have to take money from NYC Public Schools, road repair, etc...).
Please take a second to visit their website, and donate something, even $5. It only takes a minute, and ensures that the park - an oasis in the biggest city - will be there, in good shape, for all of us.
A note for my colleagues: while neither HBO nor TimeWarner will match your contribution... Here are four worthy organizations associated with Central Park that HBO & TimeWarner will match your contribution:
Central Park Medical Unit
Central Park Playground Partners
Central Park Skate Patrol Inc
Central Park Summerstage
