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.

Executive Director, Mile High Flood District

Successful partnerships are about leveraging each other’s strengths to reach a shared vision. A great visionary established both TGF and MHFD, Joe Shoemaker, to complement each other in making our communities safer and stronger through engaging our waterways. TGF brings passion, awareness, and stakeholders to the table while MHFD works directly with local governments on management and implementation. Together we are able to accomplish holistic solutions that revitalize rivers and reconnect communities to protect people, property, and our environment.

River Ranger Intern

The River Ranger internship made me more environmentally conscious, and it showed me I have a passion for teaching others about the environment once I learn about it….I got to meet a lot of cool people and make a bunch of new friends.

Chompers – Mission 9

Head outside with paper and your favorite art supplies. Find a comfy spot where you can get creative. Draw or paint something from nature that you can see that inspires you. Or, create a river scene from your imagination.
