Cooper-Donaldson Parks & Environment Fund

The Cooper-Donaldson Parks & Environment Fund was established in 2021 by Richard Cooper and Mary Donaldson, long-time friends of conservation, preservation, environmental, and nature causes in Marion and surrounding counties. They have been active in helping the Marion County Park District, the Tallgrass Trail, and the Prairie Parks Foundation.

This field of interest fund supports and funds programs of the park districts and eco-organizations in Marion, Morrow, Crawford, and Wyandot counties that promote, protect, and conserve the environment.
