We are an independent, 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that identifies, preserves and enhances the natural, historical and cultural assets of Lincoln Park.
Our experience in park restoration spans over 35 years. We have privately funded improvement projects of every size from historic buildings and monuments to natural areas, gardens and play lots – raising millions to benefit the park.
If you like being part of a team or prefer a more solitary volunteer experience, we have a program to fit your style. We offer volunteer opportunities for any level of commitment.
We continually strive to improve Chicago’s largest park for all who use it and for the environment that sustains it. Find your special way to support our mission.
