Organised by Los Angeles Parks FoundationOur city parks have given us the space to breathe, to feel safe, and to learn during a year of many challenges. With L.A.'s beloved parks facing major budget deficits and staff furloughs, we're counting on you to show your support now more than ever.
In these difficult times, we've heard from countless Angelenos who've been able to find both comfort and community in their favorite city parks. Perhaps in recent months you've hiked at Runyon Canyon, played soccer at MacArthur Park, picnicked at Pt. Fermin Lighthouse, or flown kites at Venice Beach.
Whatever way you've been using your favorite park, we hope its made a positive impact in your life and for your community. Our 450 city parks are there for all of us, and they each help make our city a better place to live, work, and play.
Clippers Community Courts: Completing our installation of more than 300 new basketball facilities throughout the city through generous support from the Los Angeles Clippers.
