About Us
The Minnesota Recreation and Park Foundation (MRPF) was established in 1973 and incorporated as a 501(c)(3) public charity in 1974.
It is the only non-profit organization in Minnesota solely dedicated to promoting excellence in the park and recreation profession.
The MRPF is dedicated to enhancing the quality of life in Minnesota by supporting recreation and parks through education, networking opportunities, programming grants, student and professional continuing education scholarships, and providing support to the Minnesota Recreation and Park Association.
Our primary objective is to support the education, innovation, and training of all recreation professionals and students.
