Every great city deserves a great park! That was the sentiment of a group of concerned citizens who came together over 20 years ago to give Atlanta the great public green space it deserved. Since then, Piedmont Park Conservancy has successfully raised and invested more than $66 million for park beautification, maintenance, security, programs, and capital improvements including a 53-acre expansion.
Piedmont Park Conservancy has successfully transformed the once dilapidated Park into the most visited green space in Atlanta. The Conservancy manages more than 90% of the Park’s daily maintenance, care and security. Less than 10% of its support comes from the City of Atlanta and the Conservancy does not receive funding from the many festivals, film shoots and large events hosted in Piedmont Park.
Whether you run, walk, bike, skate, picnic or enjoy a festival at Piedmont Park, you are benefiting from the efforts of Piedmont Park Conservancy. This run supports Piedmont Park Conservancy, a nonprofit organization.
