Donate to the Friends for Give to the Max Day.
The Friends is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that promotes the public support and appreciation of our parks and trails.
In 2024, Friends:
- created Peggy’s Grove (in partnership with Frogtown Green), a group of 14 trees and a bench overlooking an oak savannah in Frogtown Park. Peggy’s Grove honors long-time St. Paul parks advocate and former Friends’ executive director Peggy Lynch, who passed away in 2024.
- advocated for the renewal of the Minnesota Legacy Amendment that extended funding of state parks, trails and other natural areas through 2050.
- presented the Saint Paul Classic Bike Tour with more than 2,100 riders and volunteers.
- supported Friends of Pig’s Eye Park in its mission to improve the ecology of and accessibility to St. Paul’s largest park.
Your tax deductible donation of any size will help us continue our work. Thank you!
