Thank you for your interest in providing an important park amenity. Our 2023 bench installation calendar is full, and we are not currently accepting new tribute bench donation requests.

If you are interested in making a tribute donation, please explore the Park District’s other tribute donation programs, including Forests Forever.

Tribute benches are a great way to recognize your connection to the parks or recognize a friend or loved one.

With your donation, Park District staff can construct and install an attractive bench with a commemorative plaque. Benches are made out of a recycled materials and installed on a concrete or aggregate pad as appropriate to the specific location. The plaque is bronze, and the size is about three inches by eight inches.
