The Fort Wayne Parks and Recreation Department is committed to providing safe and enriching experiences through our 87 parks and hundreds of programs throughout our facilities. That commitment is possible because of the generous gifts we receive from our community. While a portion of our budget is covered through your tax dollars (which we also greatly appreciate), we still rely on millions of dollars of additional funding through grants, local organizations and individual donations. On average, we receive over $3 million annually in gifts and grants which are used to support the programs and services that directly impact our community.
