Community Powered Parks
Great parks start with the people who use them. Since 1989, Park Pride has worked alongside neighbors, funders and government partners to reimagine, improve and champion Atlanta-area parks—helping ensure every neighborhood has a great park.
A Great Park in Every Neighborhood
Everyone should have welcoming parks that are close to home—places open to all that create opportunities for connection, play, and joy, and that strengthen health, climate resilience, and community connection. Park Pride exists to help communities shape, improve, and steward those parks for the long term.
It all starts with Friends of the Park
Friends of the Park
Friends of the Park groups are neighbors organized around a shared park, and the door into almost everything else Park Pride offers.
Park Stewardship Academy
Training that equips community members to become more impactful park leaders.
Park Design Studio
Community-driven planning and design support for your park improvements.
Park Pride Grants
Grants for capital improvements, from playgrounds to accessible pathways.
Impact by the Numbers
Great parks take a community of heroes.
Four Corners Park is more than a greenspace—it’s the heart of Atlanta’s Peoplestown neighborhood. For decades, neighbors have cared for, advocated for, and imagined what this park could become. Now, with support from Park Pride, their park is being completely rebuilt and reimagined—building on generations of local stewardship and creating a more welcoming gathering place for connection, play, and joy for years to come.
"A lot of people come around and say what they would like to do, and then we don't see them anymore. But Park Pride stayed true."
