WHY DO WE TAKE DONATIONS?
The tour not only draws attention to the revitalization taking place in Cottage Home, but is also the urban neighborhood’s major fundraiser for the year. Tour goers are invited to view a variety of new and old homes, selected to showcase the creativity and diverse decorating styles of our residents, as well as explore gardens, our community park and playground. Your generous donations help us in our efforts to keep our historic neighborhood beautiful.
