Love La Mesa parks? We do too. That’s why the La Mesa Park & Recreation Foundation began. The Foundation’s mission is to provide activities that strengthen community and family bonds as well as foster pride in La Mesa parks by raising funds to upgrade city parks. The Foundation is a private 501c (3) non-profit run by a volunteer board of directors. The Foundation leverages private funds to enhance and expand park amenities beyond the basics that the City provides. April kicks off the Foundation’s Spring Campaign.

We invite families and businesses to join us! Our immediate goal is to raise $20,000. Support at levels of $25 and up will help the Foundation build new playgrounds, continue to provide enrichment programs in our parks, and improve park amenities like new water fountains, bike racks and BBQs. Our next free event is Fun with Physics at Highwood Park from 9:00 a.m. to noon on Saturday April 18th. Come learn how to create and explore with science!
“Support of the La Mesa Park and Recreation Foundation is an easy way for families and businesses who love their community to keep their donations local” says Foundation President, Vicki Whitmire. “Our board has 100% participation in this campaign and we look forward to the community joining us!”
