THE MADISON PARKS FOUNDATION

Basketballs bouncing. Dogs barking as they play. Children giggling. When you
listen to the sounds of our parks, you realize they serve an invaluable purpose
in our communities. Parks can create and facilitate a sense of fellowship, a
feeling of belonging, and a meaningful connection to the outdoors with our
family and friends.

WHAT MAKES A CITY?

Funding through your taxes provides less than $1 per park each year. But with
continued support from people like you, the Madison Parks Foundation has spent
more than 20 years bringing our parks to life. Watch “What makes a city?”
narrated by John Stofflet and help us protect and improve our parks.

INITIATIVE SPOT LIGHT


GOODMAN POOL ACCESS SCHOLARSHIPS



Since the Goodman Community Pool opened in 2006, the Madison Parks Foundation
has worked with the Goodman Foundation to provide scholarships for swimming
lessons to children regardless of income. In addition, free admission passes
have been provided for families and to local community centers across the city
so that everyone has access to our one community swimming pool. The Madison
Parks Foundation and the Goodman Foundation have provided financial support to
the Goodman Waves, Madison’s only public swim & dive team, keeping fees
affordable and by providing generous scholarships. In the past few years, the
Madison Parks Foundation has provided the funding for life jackets to be
purchased so that they are available to anyone who wants to use them without a
fee. So, if you have not had swimming lessons, you can still use the pool and
feel safe and included. The Madison Parks Foundation has also invested in the
purchase of CPR equipment for lifeguard training and certification. Please
consider supporting this important initiative!
