Donations
Your tax-deductible donation can help others in the community enjoy a Parks, Recreation and Cultural Services program that they may not otherwise be able to afford. Founded in honor of Shoreline's first mayor, the Connie King Scholarship Fund accepts donations to help pay for scholarships for low and moderate income individuals. Donations are also accepted for the Park Legacy Fund to pay for park amenities such as benches.
For more information about either of these donation programs, please call (206) 801-2630.
