JOIN OUR TEAM

Founded in 1981, the Oakland Parks and Recreation Foundation partners with local communities and neighbors, civic and cultural leaders, donors and the City of Oakland to support city parks and expand recreational opportunities citywide. We are an integral part of Oakland’s civic fabric and an effective advocate for parks. Today, we support a network of more than 100 community organizations, City recreation centers and programs with critical resources, relationships, research and technical assistance.

Our small, but mighty team works across four key program areas to support Oakland’s parks, recreation and public culture: public/private partnerships, fiscal sponsorship, advocacy and special projects. Our work is grounded in a commitment to social and environmental justice, equity, diversity and inclusion.
