Pari Livermore has devoted her life to supporting those in need. She lives by her philanthropy and has helped countless people through her charity projects, fundraisers, and special events. In 1986, she began hosting matchmaking events known as “The Red and White Ball” to generate funds for our beneficiaries, which include the American Heart Association, Minnie Cannon Elementary School, and many more. She has always been a woman for others, and throughout her journey, she has become a woman for the environment as well.
Pari’s mother and late husband were both environmentalists. Her mother was a known conservationist and founder of the Marin Art and Garden Center, Samuel P. Taylor State Park, and the Richardson Bay Sanctuary. Seeing as her loved ones were all dedicated to contributing to the environment, Pari made it her mission to spread love to mother earth by being the mind and heart of our beautification projects.
Our projects were founded to keep our environment healthy, even in the small ways that we can. We host projects to promote environmental awareness while aiming to form bonds between participants who have banded together for one great cause.
Revitalizing Community Gardens
The Vallejo Stairway Garden was once a dull, barren, and neglected area in The Russian Hills. Upon seeing the garden’s state of disarray, Pari began collaborating with Gail Glasser and Carol Anne Rogers to create a project that would help restore the garden to its once pristine condition.
In 1990, Pari and her partners began to host fundraising events for their beautification project. They developed the idea of a “Mentor’s Lunch” among the residents of The Russian Hills, wherein women from the neighborhood would enlighten other attendees about how their mentors have inspired them. The fundraisers succeeded and all the proceeds were used to restore Vallejo Stairway Garden to its original beauty. Through the trio’s joined efforts, we can enjoy the clean and stunning Vallejo Stairway Garden that we know today.
Daffodils for a Brighter Tomorrow
We have created a beautification project for Middletown, CA to promote solidarity among citizens and create opportunities for young children in the area. Our project, Daffodil Day, works closely with our scholarship program for the students of Minnie Cannon Elementary School. Through these projects, we aim to emphasize the importance of caring for our environment while helping young achievers secure a bright future.
To this day, the citizens of Middletown are greeted by vibrant yellow blossoms as they stroll through the streets of their town. Over 30,000 Daffodils have been planted by students and their families since this activity first began. We take great pride in our Daffodil Day, as it provides a collaborative approach to maintaining the beauty of our gardens.
The future of our environment rests in our hands. Under Pari’s leadership, we will continue to create meaningful projects to care for the world we live in. Join us today! Kindly contact us if you are interested in helping our cause. We will get back to you as soon as we can!
