Vision and Generosity
The Rosine Smith Sammons Butterfly House and
Insectarium is funded by the Rosine Foundation Fund
of Communities Foundation of Texas. Through the
vision and generosity of Sammons' daughter, Mary
Anne Cree, a three million dollar lead gift was made
in honor of her mother's love of butterflies and
nature.
The Butterfly House and Insectarium is the
keystone of The Metamorphosis Capital Campaign at
Texas Discovery Gardens. With an updated total goal
of $13 million, The Metamorphosis is providing funds
to greatly expand and enhance the lively,
interactive programs offered for children and adults
at Texas Discovery Gardens.
The revitalization continues...
Texas Discovery Gardens is proud to announce the
revitalization of the Metamorphosis Capital
Campaign, which was created to raise money for the
renovation of the conservatory. The City of Dallas
has showed its support for the campaign by awarding
$4.7 million in bond funds to the project, which has
enabled construction to resume in April 2008!
Be a part of this exciting project!
Individuals, foundations, businesses,
corporations, social organizations
and civic groups are invited to be
part of The Metamorphosis. Capital
campaign gifts may be in the form of
cash; pledges over a three- to
five-year period; securities;
bequests and other planned gifts.
All contributions will be
appropriately acknowledged, unless
anonymity is requested.
