Greater Metro Parks Foundation

Financial aid, known as the Active Kids Fund, removes barriers by reducing MetroParks program registration fees by 50-75% for hundreds of qualifying families.Through the Active Kids Fund, Children can enjoy activities such as swimming classes,nature education, sports leagues and performing arts lessons. The fund helps youth who otherwise would not have the financial means to get active, build skills, make healthy choices, expand personal expression and experience scientific discovery.Verification of income and proof of residency are required. Every year requests increase and Metro Parks and the Foundation work together to meet the need.
