Your donation will support planting, programming and maintenance of Sister Cities Park

Since 2012, when the Center City District transformed an underused plaza into a richly planted, family-friendly park, this 1.3-acre oasis has welcomed thousands of children to its wading pond and Children's Discovery Garden, sustained a 6,000-square-foot pollinator garden alive with native birds, bees, and butterflies, and offered a peaceful respite for neighbors, workers, and visitors.

None of this happens by accident. The planting, programming and maintenance of this gem of a park depends on the ongoing support of people who believe, as we do, that a great city deserves great public spaces. That is why we are inviting you to make a gift to the Center City District Foundation to become a Friend of Sister Cities Park.

As a Park Friend, you will:
• Support the programming, planting and maintenance of this beloved park
• Receive a biannual email newsletter that will keep you informed – you’ll be the first to hear about events and programs in the park
• Receive an exclusive invitation to an annual Friends event in the park
• Have opportunities to participate in park research and surveys

As a Friend of Sister Cities Park, you will be part of a caring community helping this small but mighty park thrive, and your investment will help spark curiosity and foster creativity in future generations of Philadelphians and visitors.

We are grateful for your support and look forward to welcoming you at our next Friends event in the park.
