Our Mission
The Great Rivers Greenway Foundation is committed to enhancing and enriching the mission of Great Rivers Greenway and the vision of making the St. Louis region a more vibrant place to live, work and play by developing a network of greenways.
About the Great Rivers Greenway Foundation
As Great Rivers Greenway continues to pursue its vision, the Foundation helps by creating a supportive community that provides financial support, raises awareness and builds a community of ambassadors. The Foundation, a 501(c)3 nonprofit, will seek and accept alternative funding for projects through donations, grants and events in the areas of capital greenway projects, community engagement programs and conservation.
