About TIMUCUAN PARKS FOUNDATION INC

Timucuan Parks Foundation (TPF) is the 501(c)(3) nonprofit friend-organization for more than two dozen national, state, and city parks and preserves across the Greater Jacksonville area. TPF partners with the National Park Service, Florida State Parks, and the City of Jacksonville to fund restoration projects, run volunteer stewardship programs, and provide public education and outdoor access.

Through volunteer programs, youth education, healthy-living initiatives, events, and grantmaking, the foundation connects residents and historically underrepresented communities to Jacksonville’s wilderness parks. Recent activity includes an annual impact report (2025) documenting volunteer contributions, program participation, and funding support to park partners, plus community-facing events such as the 7 Creeks Fest and multi-park hiking programs.
