"We envision a more just Los Angeles where every person, regardless of race or zip code, has access to safe, welcoming parks and gardens. We design these spaces in partnership with impacted communities and hire local residents to care for them. This regenerates neighborhood economies and ensures each space reflects the voices, hopes, and needs of those it serves.”
Rivian Foundation's grant
Rivian Foundation’s support is helping Los Angeles Neighborhood Land Trust to complete nine new greening projects—including five schoolyards and four parks—benefiting more than 10,000 residents and 3,000 students. The grant will also help maintain and program 14 existing parks and gardens with free arts, wellness, and cultural events for 5,000+ participants annually, support park stewardship training for local residents, and advance policy change and advocacy to expand green schoolyards and secure dedicated public funding for equitable park access across LA.
