Friends of the Palo Alto Parks is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization (tax ID#56-2424518) and welcomes donations to support specific park related projects or to support the organization and parks in general. All donations are 100% tax deductible. Also, 100% of your donation goes to your designated project/fund after subtracting the transaction fee for online donations. The General Fund is used to pay our operating expenses that are very low because the FOPAP Board and Officers are all volunteers.
