Partnerships for Parks works with many of New York City’s most successful companies to help keep our parks beautiful while providing a unique team-building experience for staff. Each year, our It’s My Park program engages over 3,000 employee volunteers in over 100 corporate service projects that improve local parks across our city.

We coordinate customized projects for groups of any size in community parks, playgrounds, and recreation centers throughout the five boroughs. Common activities include painting park fixtures; spreading mulch; planting bulbs, flowers, or shrubs; removing weeds. leaves, or litter; and more. Projects can take place year-round and generally last between two to three hours between 9:00am and 3:00pm. We are happy to tailor project location, tasks, and schedule to best fit your team’s preferences and goals.
