The Pasadena Recreation & Parks Foundation, established over 40 years ago, aims to raise awareness and provide
support to the City’s parks and recreation programs.

The Pasadena Recreation and Parks Foundation's mission is to support the City in keeping its open spaces green and usable;
to enhance City's recreation programs including partnering with youth agencies that have similar goals so they enrich the
lives of Pasadena area residents; and to ensure that the parks inspire a vision of a healthy city.

Some of the past contributions of the Foundation include park benches in San Rafael Park, Dodger Night for Pasadena
Youth, Earth Day, and Rose Bowl Aquatics Center Scholarships. The Foundation is a recognized fiscal receiver and accepts
donations / grants to support recreation programs. Applications for scholarships and program assistance are available.
