Funding from the City of Columbus and fees from the programs help provide for some of the expenses that are required to operate the Columbus Parks and Recreation programs, parks, trails and facilities, but it doesn’t cover all the costs especially for our free activities. The Columbus Park Foundation works to fill in these funding gaps. Our generous 2021 donors helped 126 children from 64 families participate in 204 Parks and Recreation activities, planted 68 trees in city parks, purchased supplies and games for the free Come Out & Play Playground Program, repaired 1 mile of People Trails, supported the Great Columbus Campout, Movies in the Park and Christmas Village, and much more! We thank you for your gifts and look forward to an even better 2022.
