Shirley’s Fund Company
We’re seeking donated land or long-term access in Southeast Michigan to host art therapy workshops, community events, and conservation activities. EIN 99-3010688 • Contact [email protected]
Outright donations of land can qualify for a charitable tax deduction. We’ll evaluate suitability for workshops, gatherings, and conservation.
Offer use via no-cost lease, easement, or MOU. Great for parks, faith centers, schools, or private owners who want impact without transferring title.
Allow us to host periodic art therapy workshops or planting days on your property with agreed scheduling and guidelines.

- Preliminary review (location, access, zoning, suitability).
- Site visit (as needed) and program fit discussion.
- Agreement: donation deed, access MOU, or event schedule.
- Launch: workshops, plantings, and community events.
Final arrangements vary by property and may require legal documentation. We’ll keep it as simple as possible.
- We set clear participant guidelines and provide onsite coordination.
- We carry appropriate organizational coverage (as available) and follow site rules.
- Conservation plantings are symbolic dedications; survival of individual plants cannot be guaranteed due to natural conditions.
