Help Us Preserve a Piece of Finnish Heritage in Cleveland!

We’re Just $12,000 Away from Bringing New Life to the Finnish Cultural Garden!

For more than 70 years, the Finnish Cultural Garden, located along Cleveland’s historic Martin Luther King Jr. Drive, has stood as a proud tribute to Finnish heritage, culture, and the generations of Finnish immigrants who helped shape Northeast Ohio. Since its establishment in the 1950s, the garden has served as a lasting symbol of Finnish identity, celebrating the traditions, values, and contributions of the Finnish community.

Today, the Finnish Heritage Museum is working to preserve and revitalize this treasured landmark for future generations. Our restoration efforts include replacing deteriorating concrete walkways and improving the garden's appearance, accessibility, and welcoming atmosphere for all visitors.

Thanks to the extraordinary generosity of Cuyahoga County, the Holden Parks Trust, and our dedicated museum supporters, we have already raised $40,000 toward our $52,000 goal!

Now, we need your help to raise the final $12,000 and make this vision a reality.

With your support, we hope to begin construction in spring 2027, ensuring that the Finnish Cultural Garden continues to be a beautiful and meaningful destination for generations to come.

Every donation, large or small, brings us one step closer to our goal. Your contribution is more than a gift toward restoring a garden—it is an investment in preserving Finnish heritage, honoring those who came before us, and sharing their legacy with those who follow.

Together, we can preserve the past, celebrate the present, and build a lasting legacy for the future.

Please consider making a donation today and help us bring new life to Cleveland’s Finnish Cultural Garden!

Kiitos! Thank you for helping us keep Finnish heritage alive!
