AccessibilitySupport NYC Parks
New York City’s parks are the city’s backyards, front yards, and village greens for more than eight million New Yorkers. With nearly 30,000 acres of land, NYC Parks is home to free concerts, world-class sports events, recreational and athletic facilities, and cultural festivals. Whether you prefer to rest and relax, feel closer to nature, or to exercise, there is a park for you!
You can give back to your parks in a number of ways, through making a donation or an in-kind gift, or by volunteering. Your investment in our parks is vital to the planning of resilient and sustainable parks, building a park system for present and future generations, and caring for our parks and public spaces.
