About Us

The Legacy for LS Parks Foundation is a nonprofit corporation that provides a valuable fundraising outlet to the community, allowing individuals to support the betterment of our parks and recreation system in various ways.

 

Our Board of Directors works closely with the staff and Board of Lee's Summit Parks and Recreation to identify projects, initiatives, and programs that meet its objectives and priorities for providing funding and support.

 

Originally established as the Legacy for Parks Foundation in 2008 by a group of like-minded citizens with a passion and drive for a common interest - parks and recreation in Lee's Summit. These community leaders saw the need for a mechanism for the community to participate in the enhancement of our already amazing amenities through an avenue separate from the traditional municipal structure.​
