Who We Are
Great Parks Forever is the philanthropic partner of Great Parks of Hamilton County (Great Parks). While Great Parks and Great Parks Forever are independent organizations, we work together to enhance and preserve 19 parks, 4 conservation areas, over 94 miles of trails, and more than 18,000 acres in Hamilton County for current residents and future generations.
Since our founding in 2006, Great Parks Forever has raised over $26.5 million for vital park programs and initiatives.
Why We Do What We Do
Great Parks Forever believes that parks are not a luxury, but a necessity. Parks—especially the beautiful and vast greenspaces throughout Hamilton County cared for by Great Parks—provide immeasurable benefits for everyone in our region 365 days per year.
As the challenges of modern life increase day by day, including work stress, social isolation, and digital overload, parks provide essential natural spaces for us to breathe fresh air, gather, relax, learn, exercise, explore, discover, play, picnic, or find peace in nature's stillness.
