The Los Angeles Parks Foundation raises funds for projects and programs of all sizes throughout our city parks. Whether it’s building a state-of-the art archery range or placing donated benches beneath shady trees, the L.A. Parks Foundation continues to expand its role with private funding to support our city parks. Our signature initiatives include our Adopt-A-Park, Friends of the Parks, and Donate-A-Bench programs. The foundation is an example of the unique benefit that can be realized through public-private partnerships. Established in 2008 as a California not-for-profit, operating under EIN 26-2358338, the Foundation was created to support the Los Angeles City Department of Recreation and Parks. We have raised over $33 million to support L.A. city parks.
