In 1998, the Hillsborough Garden Club and thirty-three Founding Friends provided leadership gifts to establish the Hillsborough Beautification Foundation (HBF). Since its inception, HBF has received generous donations from hundreds of Hillsborough residents, neighbors and friends.
HBF has utilized these donations to fund a myriad of projects and community events: the relandscaping and maintenance of traffic inlands, the full renovation of Vista Park, restoration of historic gates, the creation of Crossroads Park, new Town entrance and street signs, projects at the Town’s public schools, annual daffodil planting and Light Up the Town! each December. HBF’s twice yearly newsletter keeps residents abreast of beautification activities.
As a nonprofit foundation, HBF is separate from the Town of Hillsborough and any other group.
