Now more than ever, be there to help your neighbors.
In this time of uncertainty, your neighbors need your help more than ever. Donating to the Deerfield Park Foundation will provide many families with the help that they need right now. Be there for your friends and neighbors so that recreation is a constant in their child’s life no matter what their circumstance. Each year over $30,000 in scholarships is granted to local families in financial need to participate in recreation programs at the Deerfield Park District. Your donation can change lives and ease a difficult burden on a local family.
