    Emerald Necklace Endowment Fund

    Parks | Support | Donate | Emerald Necklace Endowment Fund

    You can preserve and protect Cleveland Metroparks through a gift to the Emerald Necklace Endowment Fund. Gifts to the Emerald Necklace Endowment Fund of The Cleveland Foundation remain in the fund and generate annual income to benefit all aspects of Cleveland Metroparks including:

    • Conserving natural resources through land and wildlife stewardship
    • Providing outdoor education for all ages
    • Facilitating recreation opportunities to foster personal wellness, health and the enjoyment of natural resources

    Since it was established, the Emerald Necklace Endowment Fund has generated approximately $1.5 million to support Cleveland Metroparks education programs, natural resource research projects, trail improvements and capital projects.
