Big News!
Orkney Park Is Growing!
We have some exciting news to share! Our partner, Neighborhood Gardens Trust (NGT), has been awarded a $132,500 grant from the Pennsylvania Department of Conservation and Natural Resources (DCNR) to help purchase and permanently protect additional green space at Orkney Park!
This is a huge milestone for our Grow Orkney Park campaign and a wonderful recognition of the years of hard work, generosity, and dedication that have made our neighborhood park so special.
Earlier this year, we got a head start on transforming the space, creating new pathways, gardens, and gathering areas for neighbors to enjoy. Now, this grant brings us another big step closer to securing its future.
But our work isn't finished!
Community donations remain essential to covering acquisition expenses, supporting the improvements already made, and caring for these beautiful spaces for years to come.
To everyone who has donated, volunteered, or cheered us on, thank you! Your support has helped turn a once-in-a-generation opportunity into something our entire neighborhood can enjoy.
Let's keep growing Orkney Park together!
