Friends of Tampa Recreation is a 501(c)(3) organization dedicated to supporting the City's recreation programs and improving its parks. We strongly believe that vibrant parks and exceptional recreation programs are vital to enhancing the quality of life in our community. Our primary objectives are to secure funds for parks and recreation programs, promote public awareness of the value and benefits of parks, encourage the acquisition of green spaces and the enhancement of public parks, and assist with special events and ongoing projects.

We place great importance on fostering friendships, investing in our community, emphasizing youth engagement, providing new opportunities, and promoting a healthy lifestyle. Join us in our mission by staying connected through our newsletter and contacting Kitty Lyons, our Executive Director, for any inquiries. Together, let's make Tampa an even better place to live and play
