The Department of Parks and Recreation (DPR) relies on the support of individuals, non-profit organizations, groups, and businesses that are committed to working with DPR to make a sustainable impact on a shared goal around the community. DPR partners provide time, resources, or financial support that allow DPR to extend the impact of many of our programs and services.
DPR offers a variety of partner opportunities. With over 850 acres of green space, DPR’s inventory includes 243 neighborhood parks, 68 recreation & community centers, 35 pools and aquatic centers, 36 spray parks, 122 outdoor basketball courts, 138 tennis courts, and 110 athletic and ball fields in the District of Columbia.
