Three Rivers Park District Foundation

Each year, we celebrate how our parks enrich lives and connect people to the natural world in ways that inspire joy, learning, and community.

Your unrestricted Give to the Max Day gift helps connect more people with the wonders of our parks. By supporting the Three Rivers Park District Foundation, you're helping remove barriers, expand opportunities, and make outdoor experiences accessible to more people. Your generosity supports important initiatives such as:

• Adapted Recreation Programs – open the door to outdoor experiences for people of all abilities, including children, veterans, and seniors.
• Pathways Internships – provide youth and young adults, in particular those facing barriers to employment, with meaningful work experiences and a pathway into conservation and parks careers.
• Transportation Assistance – helps school groups and community members from underrepresented areas reach our parks by removing transportation barriers and expanding access to nature for those with financial need.

Together, we can break barriers and build connections that last a lifetime. Thank you for helping make our parks welcoming and accessible to everyone!

"Doing these kinds of activities helps me be more okay with what’s happening with my body, since there are still options to stay active and to learn new things.” - Annie, Adapted Cycling Program participant

“I love how these experiences give youth the chance to connect with nature, try new things, and build relationships they might not have otherwise. There’s something magical that happens when we allow ourselves time in nature.” - Partner, Sandburg Middle School
