About the Parks Foundation of Miami-Dade!





The Parks Foundation of Miami-Dade is a 501(c)3 organization which supports the Miami-Dade Park and Recreation Department and its mission to help build a world-class parks system for Miami-Dade County residents and visitors, by creating a healthier, more livable and sustainable community by supporting the Open Space Master Plan vision and principles and year-round local park and recreation programs.

Monies raised through membership and fundraising efforts help fund scholarships for disadvantaged children to attend after-school and summer camp programs; recreational and community programs, such as disability services, and health and wellness initiatives for people of all ages, from the very young to senior citizens; and Open Space Master Plan initiatives, such as the development of Trailways, Bikeways and safe access to parks and open spaces.

We invite you to support our cause and ensure that parks remain for future generations. The Parks Foundation is reaching out to persons who share the same fundamental values of preserving and promoting parks in Miami-Dade County to become members of the Parks Foundation. Membership opportunities range from $99 individual memberships to Donor Circle memberships priced at $249 for Bronze, $499 for Silver and $749 for Gold memberships.
