Overview

Mission

Stewardship of and preserving and advocating for open space, parkland and environmental sustainability in Irvington, Dobbs Ferry and Tarrytown, New York. This includes advocating for the preservation of open space, the protection and restoration of local ecosystems, and environmental education.

What it reported doing in 2025

We ran a Community Grant Program focused on providing small grants to local community groups, student groups and 501(c)(3) organizations to promote and preserve open space and parkland and provide advocacy and education about environmental stewardship. We solicited applications from the community and granted six individual grants in the aggregate amount of $9,015. We also held a public event attended by over 80 people to honor the six grantees and to hear presentations about the work that each local group did. These projects included the removal of invasive plants, the planting of native plants, trees and shrubs, and developing educational programs promoting this work
