Fred's Facts

Researchers have recently discovered that children with ADD can concentrate on schoolwork and similar tasks better than usual after taking part in activities in green settings, such as walking through or playing in a park.

Planned Giving

Want to make a donation that will have a lasting impact on the Frederick Law Olmsted Parks? Consider a planned gift that will ensure these historic Louisville parks are preserved for future generations.

Planned gift donors are extremely important to Olmsted Parks Conservancy. If you make a planned gift, you will become a member of our Olmsted Legacy Society. You’ll receive ongoing communications regarding park activities and improvements being made, and you’ll be invited to an annual meeting open only to Olmsted Legacy Society members where Conservancy staff will provide an in-depth review of how planned gifts are impacting the Olmsted park system.

Planned gifts are easy to make. Consider designating Olmsted Parks Conservancy as a beneficiary for the following:

  • Checking account
  • Savings account
  • Stocks or bonds
  • IRA or pension
  • Life insurance policy

You could specify a gift for Olmsted Parks Conservancy in your will. We will work with you to be sure that your gift is used as you intend. Endowment gifts are the best way to make a lasting impact on Frederick Law Olmsted Parks.

Contact Meredith Erickson, Director of Development, at (502) 456-3244 to make a planned gift today.
