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.

GLC Participant & River Ranger

The Greenway Foundation has helped direct my track in my current major. I wasn’t sure what I wanted to learn about in college but my experiences through The Greenway Leadership Corps (GLC) and River Rangers helped me understand that ecology is much more than human’s interactions with the environment. I am now an Earth Science major at Dartmouth College, studying soil sciences with a focus on Agricultural systems – a huge shift from my previous thoughts before my Greenway experiences.

Parent of SPREE School Break Camper

SPREE is hands down (my child’s) favorite camp EVER and she has dedicated a spot in her room specifically to “SPREE Memories.”

Environmental Administrator Department of Public Health & Environment

Denver Department of Public Health & Environmen is a proud sponsor of the Clean Water Challenge. It has proven to be a great learning experience for both professionals working in water quality and students interested in the field. The challenge exposes students to real-world problems that water quality professionals deal with on a regular basis. Participants come with fresh perspectives leading to interesting, and sometimes unexpected, but practical solutions to challenging water quality problems.

Very cool trip and was extremely pleased with the organization/implementation of the trip! We will be back and appreciate the hard work that goes into planning these trips.

 
Chompers – Mission 6

Litter is trash that isn’t thrown away properly. It makes parks less fun to be in, and can hurt animals and plants. With an adult – and some gloves – pick up litter in your neighborhood or local park.
