Leadership Circle

Help lay the foundation for a park full of possibilities.

Step into our Leadership Circle to make a monumental impact on the community you love. Your generous support will create the very best version of Waterloo Greenway today and every nature-renewing, culture-filled day in the park to come. Make a one-time gift or become a sustaining member through a three-year pledge that widens our vista of support and provides a runway for park operations and new programs. We’ll thank you for your generosity through in-park recognition, private events, special event invitations, and more.

You can also gift a membership to a family member or friend, inviting them to explore and enjoy all Waterloo Greenway has to offer.
