The crisp breeze on your face on a walk with your family after a satisfying meal. The sound of winter birds chirping as they flutter by. The smell of dewy grass early on a peaceful morning.
John—if you've ever gone back home for the holidays, did you pass by your old playground or local park? If you did, we hope it brought back old, fond memories you hold dear.
But did you know that 1 in 3 people still don’t have access to a quality park within a 10-minute walk of home?
The special moments and great memories kids, families, and friends can make in their local park is just one of the many reasons TPL is committed to creating high quality parks in communities across the country—and when you make a 3X matched gift today, you’re helping to expand access to parks so that everyone can enjoy the benefits of green spaces close to where they live.
We know you’re busy this holiday season, but when you make a gift today, you’re making a crucial impact towards ensuring equitable park access for all. So, John, can we count on you to add making a triple matched gift to your to-do list?

We know we’re all park lovers here, but there are more benefits to parks than meets the eye. On average, cities with more parks have neighbors who are more socially connected and engaged in their communities—and at a time when our country is experiencing high rates of loneliness and isolation, this couldn’t be more important.
Right now, 100 million people, including 28 million children, do not have close to home access to a park. But with your help, we’re working with mayors across the country to help cities advance policies and practices to secure equitable park access for all, especially in the communities that need it most.
John, when you make a triple matched gift today, you’re fueling TPL’s work to expand parks across the U.S. Give now and your donation will be 3X matched, tripling your impact to ensure park access for everyone.
