Eugene Parks Foundation

The Eugene Parks Foundation is a public-private partnership with Eugene Parks and Recreation.  The mission is to connect people and resources in ways that improve parks and recreation for the enjoyment and well-being of all. As an independent 501(c)(3) organization, the Foundation works to provide resources for special projects the City cannot fund, helping to ensure that everyone, regardless of ability or background, is able to enjoy Eugene’s parks and recreation services.

Past projects made successful through support of the Foundation include: 

  • Accessible Play at Amazon Park 
  • Washington Park Spray Play 
  • Recreation Scholarships 
  • Riverbank Path Wayfinding
