Generosity




	Community Involvement
	The MVLNA also understands the importance of community projects. Our membership is called upon quite often to participate in community landscape or cleanup projects. In addition, the MVLNA has donated funds or materials to groups that support our industry.

	Some of our recent donations are:
	*Paid for installation of new carpet at Boardman Park in a garden club meeting room.

	*Donation of OSU county extension office to help alleviate the county funding gap.

	*Donation to Friends of Fellows Riverside Gardens to upgrade their computer and software programs.

	*A thirteen specimen tree donation to Fellows Riverside Gardens.

	*Five-hundred dollar donation to Trumbull County Children Services for activities related to outdoor gardening.

	*Two-hundred fifty dollars to Trumbull Red Cross.

	MVLNA Memorial Scholarship Program
	The MVLNA scholarship program is open to students of horticulture, applying to or attending a two or four-year college or university. Letters of recommendation from at least one employer and one instructor in horticulture and a personal reference are required.
