Mission Statement

The mission statement of the Friends of the Parks is:

“A non-for-profit foundation organized to foster, encourage, and promote the mission statement of the New Lenox Community Park District by providing financial contribution assistance and/or a volunteer community base of individuals for the support of its functions and programs, and dedication to the overall well being to the residents they serve.”

Periodic fundraisers and participation in events is the driving force used to successfully promote the mission and donations we provide to the New Lenox Community Park District.

Fundraising efforts result in an agreed upon percentage of funds that are remitted to the New Lenox Community Park District as well as the New Lenox Friends of the Parks. Since our inception, the New Lenox Friends of the Parks has donated over $20,000 worth of donations to further the work of the New Lenox Community Park District.

The group only meets once a quarter, but the important work we do create a lifetime of memories for a child. Our membership is committed to assisting the New Lenox Community Park District to ensure that together we can improve the quality of life in our community.

If you or someone you know is interested in joining our organization, please contact (779) 803-3246 or email New Lenox Friends of the Parks at [email protected]. With only a few hours of your time, you can open the world of parks and recreation in the Lincoln Way Community. You’ll be glad you did!
