The Anchorage Park Foundation is proud to announce the "Parks for All" initiative. We are partnering with Anchorage families to raise funds to create parks that meet the needs of our diverse community and provide healthy play and recreation opportunities for all.

We want to ensure that Anchorage kids of all abilities have the opportunity to play. Play gives kids the opportunity for social, physical and mental stimulation and expression.

Our first project is the Playground for All at Cuddy Family Midtown Park. The Anchorage Park Foundation is working with the Parks & Recreation Department, local families, and policy makers to raise funds and create a vision for a playground that will serve all Anchorage families. For more information about the Playground for All, please review our project brochure.
