Building a better Tucson… for all of us!  Supporting and enhancing the work of the Tucson Parks and Recreation Department has been the goal of the Tucson Parks Foundation since its inception in 1983.

The Tucson Parks Foundation, a 501c (3) non-profit works each year to provide additional funding and support for special projects that benefit our community.  Projects such as specially equipped playgrounds for handicapped children, camperships for underprivileged kids, specialized equipment for the therapeutic poll and improvements to local golf courses and recreational facilities are among the dozens and programs and projects that have been funded by the Tucson Parks Foundation.

Over the past 27 years, the Tucson Parks Foundation has donated more than $3,000,000 from various fundraising efforts to improve parks and recreation facilities in Tucson.  The Tucson Parks Foundation has agreed to take on the challenge of funding the installation of shade structures in our parks and at our recreation centers to protect the health of our children and then expand the usefulness of existing play equipment. 

The Tucson Parks Foundation includes dedicated members from all walks of life. With a desire to renew, revitalize, and strengthen its mission and commitment, the Tucson Parks Foundation is looking to tap the abundant energies and special talents of people in our community.  If you would like to be a part of this mission as a volunteer, a contributor or to become a member, please contact the Tucson Parks Foundation at
