Dacia's Fundraiser for Cincinnati Parks Foundation

I don't just love Cincinnati Parks. I acorn them!

To acorn Cincinnati Parks means to take action. It is planting trees, clearing trails, restoring landmarks and creating spaces where everyone feels welcome. It is choosing to show up for our parks and for our city. 

As the official philanthropic partner to Cincinnati Parks, the Cincinnati Parks Foundation works to make our city a place where everyone has access to nature and wellness. Through our mission to Create, Conserve and Connect, we support projects and programs that turn our parks into vibrant spaces that bring people together.

For 30 years, Cincinnati Parks Foundation has transformed our parks into places that connect people to nature and to one another. From the riverfront to neighborhood greenspaces, we've planted more than 30,000 trees, restored natural habitats, expanded wellness programs and made our parks more accessible for all. 

Every dollar you give is an acorn that helps something beautiful grow. It creates shade where there was none. It introduces a child to nature. It brings neighbors together in shared community space. 

This Cincinnati Gives season, I'm asking you to support Cincinnati Parks Foundation with me. Because when we plant together, our city grows stronger, greener and more connected. 

Could you be the one who plants the next acorn?
