Your Gift was Matched through #GivingTuesday

With the myriad of challenges facing the world today, protecting our city's parks and open spaces is more important than ever. These are the spaces that allow communities to come together, celebrate culture, exercise, relax, play, experience nature, and engage civically.

When asked why this work matters, local advocates and parks enthusiasts from across the city responded loud and clear – but we’ll let them tell you themselves…to hear their stories, check out the Why New Yorkers for Parks? video above.

This #GivingTuesday we came together to  empower local parks advocates with the tools they need to defend local parks and open spaces.

For over 100 years, New Yorkers for Parks (NY4P) has protected and promoted New York City’s parks and open spaces. Today, New Yorkers for Parks brings people together to work towards safe, equitable, and well-maintained parks and opens spaces for all New Yorkers in all neighborhoods.
