Friends of Corvallis Parks and Recreation (Friends) is an independent 501(c)(3) non-profit organization incorporated in the State of Oregon in October 2012. We are dedicated to protecting and improving Corvallis’s parks and recreation programs and facilities for all residents. Corvallis parks are wonderful public assets that offer a unique opportunity to enhance our city and region. Raising funds to maintain the parks and recreation facilities and programs can be achieved best through partnerships between the city, other partners and the users of the system.

The mission of the Friends is to improve the livability of our community and the quality of life for all residents. We will accomplish this by providing support and generating funding for projects and programs that enhance and supplement the recreational environmental, educational and leisure activities offered by the Corvallis Parks and Recreation Department.
