An Earth Day Request
This Earth Day, we are asking you to join us in our work to protect, expand, and enhance the JRPS by making a donation.
Support Park Funding!
While we have been hard at work prepping for our upcoming projects, the Mayor has proposed $1,000,000 for Master Plan implementation as part of Richmond’s budget for next year.
Exciting Projects in the Park
At our monthly meeting last week, the Board of Directors approved spending a little over $75,000 to support two projects in the Park. Your donated dollars are being used in conjunction with City funding.
Some Winter News & Goings-on!
Wintertime generally means that things get a bit quieter around the Park. This doesn’t mean that there isn’t a ton going on!
A Recap of Our 2022
2022 was a very eventful year for FOJRP and I wanted to share a recap of our top stories for the year.
A New Way to Support the Park
Back in October I had the chance to meet artist Sheryl Stalnaker. Sheryl is donating a portion of the proceeds from The James River Collection directly to FOJRP.
A Fall Update and Your Support
The Park is full of color and life this time of year and it is my favorite time to be outdoors. As we prepare for winter projects, I thought this would be a great time to update you all on what we have been up to.
Happy Summer from Giles!
The Summer season in the Park is in full swing, and there is a ton of progress on projects of all sizes!
New Fiscal Year, New & Improved Website!
We worked hard to design and build a new website that is easier to navigate, faster, and more visitor focused than what we had before.
A Happy Fourth!
“What do you do with the money? Why should I support the work you do?” As a nonprofit director, these are probably the most important questions for me, and I couldn’t be prouder to write this blog addressing those questions.
