The Greenway Foundation

A cleaner, safer, more accessible river for all.

Ever biked along the South Platte River, picnicked in Confluence Park, attended a SPREE excursion or summer camp, or caught a trout in downtown Denver? Then you know The Greenway Foundation’s work.

Allow us to introduce ourselves.

What We Do
Ways to Give

We are a group of passionate stewards who care for the South Platte River and its tributaries, and for the people who live, work, and play along its banks.

As a third generation Denverite, I am proud to support The Greenway Foundation’s success in returning the South Platte to something we can be proud of. While TGF’s impact on Denver and her surrounding communities is immeasurable, the work is far from over. Their continued efforts toward science education and green initiatives make them an essential partner to the success of our city.

 
Chompers – Mission 8

Head outside with pencil and paper for a walk. It could be in your neighborhood, in a park, or – best of all – along the river. Make a list or draw pictures of all the wildlife you see. Birds, insects, and mammals.

Take the same walk another day. Do you see the same or different wildlife?

Parent of SPREE Summer Camper

We wanted to thank you for running such a fantastic program this summer for our son! We have been continually impressed every single day with the curriculum, outdoor time, safety, respect and all that he is learning about the environment.

 
Chompers – Mission 6

Litter is trash that isn’t thrown away properly. It makes parks less fun to be in, and can hurt animals and plants. With an adult – and some gloves – pick up litter in your neighborhood or local park.

 
Chompers – Mission 1
Chompers

Go outside with drawing supplies. Find a comfy spot. Lay on your back and look up at the sky. What shapes do you see in the clouds? Draw what you see.

 
Chompers – Mission 3
Mission From Chompers:

Find a comfy place outside. Sit down and close your eyes. Listen. What do you hear? Can you hear five different sounds? What are they?
