What it says it does

The NGS raises money for national nursing caring and gardening charities by receiving donations and other support as a result of opening gardens of quality, character and interest to the public. County teams raise funds primarily from donations from garden openings which are sent to Head Office. Gardens are promoted by the annual publication - The Yellow Book; the NGS website and County booklets.
