The Foundation is a non-profit organization whose donations are tax-deductible. In the course of our efforts in the public trust we have been pleased to receive the support of over 3,000 donors.
We hope you will join them. Some donors have supported us with direct contributions sent to ELPTF at PO Box 174, Niantic, Ct. 06357. Many others have given through our various commemorative programs, often done in cooperation with the East Lyme Parks & Recreation Department.
These include the commemorative plaques that are installed on the Niantic Bay Boardwalk, The Promise of Tomorrow’s Trees tree- plantings in town parks, and special projects, such as the educational signs on the Niantic Bay Boardwalk and Beach.
The number of commemorative plaques is now over 2,000 and continues to be very popular. The bench project, recently completed, totaled 200.
