Dedicated to a safe and vibrant parks system that benefits all.

 

Milwaukee Parks Foundation was established in 2019 with the mission of engaging our community in supporting Milwaukee County Parks to collectively steward a thriving park system.

Through this effort, the Foundation fosters dynamic connections through our land and community, expanding what is possible in our neighborhoods, and engaging residents in supporting a safe and vibrant parks system that benefits all.

 

The foundation’s leadership is engaged in a strategic planning process to establish the priorities for the next five years.
