Mission
FRANCIS PARK IS OWNED BY THE CITY OF ST. LOUIS, WHICH HAS LIMITED FUNDS TO MAINTAIN THE PARK. A GROUP OF CITY RESIDENTS GOT TOGETHER AND FORMED FRIENDS OF FRANCIS PARK (FOFP), A 501(C)(3) CORPORATION, TO PRESERVE, IMPROVE, SUPPORT AND PROMOTE OUR NEIGHBORHOOD PARK AND TO HELP FUND AND IMPLEMENT IMPROVEMENTS IN FRANCIS PARK. FOFP WORKS CLOSELY WITH THE NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATION, OUR ALDERPERSON AND THE CITY PARKS DEPARTMENT. FOFP IS FUNDED THROUGH PRIVATE CONTRIBUTIONS AND THE NET PROCEEDS FROM THE ANNUAL RUN FOR THE HILLS, FOOT GOLF EVENT, AND ART IN THE PARK. IT HAS NO PAID EMPLOYEES. THE CITY PARKS DEPARTMENT AS WELL AS OUR 2ND WARD ALDERPERSON HAVE BEEN INCLUDED IN ALL OF OUR DISCUSSIONS ABOUT PROPOSED IMPROVEMENTS OR FUND RAISING ACTIVITIES IN THE PARK AND MUST APPROVE ANY IMPROVEMENTS OR ACTIVITIES PROPOSED BY FOFP BEFORE THEY ARE IMPLEMENTED OR SCHEDULED.
Program accomplishments
- FOFP IS FUNDED THROUGH PRIVATE CONTRIBUTIONS, GRANTS AND NEIGHBORHOOD EVENTS. AS IN PRIOR YEARS, DUE TO LIMITATIONS ON CITY RESOURCES, FOFP, ALONG WITH OTHER NEIGHBORHOOD ORGANIZATIONS, FUNDED SOME GRASS CUTTING FOR THE PARK AS WELL AS COSTS TO REMOVE AND CLEAN UP DEAD TREES IN THE PARK. FOFP ALSO FUNDED RESTORATION OF THE PARK'S HANDBALL COURTS; A WINTER CLEAN UP OF THE NATIVE GARDEN AREA; PARK MAINTENANCE, LANDSCAPE WORK, AND TREES/FLOWERS FOR THE PARK; MAINTENANCE OF THE DAVID R. FRANCIS STATUE AREA; AND MAINTENANCE AND CLEAN UP OF THE PARK'S BEAUTIFUL AND ICONIC LILY POND. THE ST. LOUIS HILLS SPECIAL BUSINESS DISTRICT PROVIDED FUNDING FOR THE HANDBALL COURTS' RESTORATION. IN 2025, FOFP PROMOTED THE PARK THROUGH ITS ANNUAL RUN FOR THE HILLS, FOOT GOLF, AND ART IN THE PARK EVENTS. THESE EVENTS WERE HELD IN THE PARK AND WERE ATTENDED, CUMULATIVELY, BY THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE. IN 2018, FOFP COMPLETED THE CAMPAIGN FOR A STATUE OF DAVID R. FRANCIS, FOR WHOM THE PARK IS NAMED AND WHO DONATED THE LAND FOR FRANCIS PARK TO THE CITY OF ST. LOUIS ON CHRISTMAS EVE 1916. ADDITIONALLY, IN 2018, THE STATUE WAS INSTALLED, DEDICATED AND DONATED TO THE CITY OF ST. LOUIS. THEREAFTER, FOFP CONTINUES TO MAINTAIN THE AREA SURROUNDING THE STATUE.Expenses $82,073
