[ARCHIVED] Kaiser Gives $500,000 to Help Rebuild Park

Coffey Park Rebuild.1

Representatives of the Coffey Strong neighborhood group and the Santa Rosa Parks Foundation have been awarded a $500,000 grant from the Kaiser Foundation to assist with the rebuilding of Coffey Neighborhood Park. The 5.85 acre park, which is owned by the City of Santa Rosa, was destroyed in the October 2017 Tubbs Fire, and the City is facing a multi-million-dollar shortage in the funds needed to rebuild the park.

LEARN MORE...

For more information on the Kaiser Foundation grant, please visit the: Coffey Strong Website.

To learn more about Santa Rosa's fire-impacted parks, please visit the: City's Rebuild Website.

To assist with fundraising efforts, please visit the website of the: Santa Rosa Parks Foundation.
