Donate to Parks

History of the Parks Foundation

On May 22, 1979, the Langley City Parks Foundation was established as a non-profit society. The Foundation was created to provide a means for individuals, groups and organizations to make donations towards park improvement projects in the City of Langley. The Parks Foundation works hand in hand with the City of Langley Parks Division and the Point of Pride Program to enhance our community. Donations are accepted for the purpose of installing approved fixtures and improvements in the City of Langley. All fixtures are maintained by City staff so that residents and visitors may appreciate your donation.
