About Us
The mission of the Columbus Recreation and Parks Foundation is to support the philanthropic initiatives of Columbus Recreation and Parks Department. The CRP Foundation works with the department, community stakeholders, and the City of Columbus to ensure all residents have access to recreational programs, facilities, places, and spaces that make their lives and communities great.
What We Do
Stewarding more than 14,500 acres of green space
Tax dollars play an important role in our parks and recreation facilities. However, they alone cannot provide all the funds needed to maintain and improve vital community services and programs. The establishment of the CRP Foundation fulfills the recommendation to expand partnership opportunities as recommended by the 2014 Master Plan. The CRP Foundation, independent but collaborative in spirit, focuses on leveraging public-private partnerships and philanthropic gifts.
