John,
We’re thrilled to share exciting news with you: TPL and Nike have formed a groundbreaking partnership aimed at revolutionizing our parks and schoolyards to build active and climate-resilient communities!
As climate impacts escalate, the urgency of creating resilient, healthy spaces cannot be overstated. We’re making a real impact by replacing blacktops with lush tree canopy, gardens, and permeable surfaces that soak up stormwater to reduce flooding, improve water quality, and cool down overheated play areas.
Experience this inspiring transformation in action by watching our short video.

But time is of the essence. With Nike's invaluable support, we’re transforming physical spaces and extending our advocacy efforts nationwide. We aim to secure long-term funding for parks and schoolyards, positioning them as essential green infrastructure that lets everyone play.
We appreciate your support on this incredible journey, as together we forge a more resilient, healthy, and equitable future for communities nationwide.
Join us in making a lasting difference!
Warm regards,
