The PLAY Boulder Foundation is the official non-profit partner of Boulder's Parks and Recreation Department.
Our mission is to support excellence in parks and recreation by mobilizing community support through education, philanthropy, and advocacy. We enhance local public spaces, preserve Boulder’s environment, and expand access to recreation programs.
Join us for our free Tree Pruning Workshop on January 27, 2025.
Our Foundational Pillars
Access
Committed to advancing health equity and recreation access, our PLAYpass program supports under-resourced youth in Boulder. We also contribute to initiatives like EXPAND and the Youth Services Initiative (YSI), ensuring every person not only has access but also feels a genuine sense of belonging in the exceptional programs Boulder has to offer.
