The over 200 acres of green space, multitude of public programs and recreational facilities are too much for the Conservancy to support alone. City taxes provide a minimal amount of aid- but with nearly 6 million annual visitors- aren’t enough to fully support the activity that happens in the Park.
Before the Conservancy existed and before donor support, Piedmont Park was nearly loved to death. We work every day to enhance and preserve Piedmont Park as a vital, urban green space, and as a cultural and recreational resource that enriches the quality of life for all Atlantans.
90% of the Park’s upkeep is funded by private dollars- from people like you. Donations fund tree and flower plantings to keep the Park beautiful, help mulch the off-leash dog parks and fund programming like our summer camp and local farmers market. The Conservancy was formed to keep the Park from being loved to death- our donors now keep the Park the green, thriving, beating heart of the city.
Donors inspire life in the heart of Atlanta
