Established in 2011 as a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization, Overton Park Conservancy's mission is to protect, preserve, and improve Overton Park, a 342-acre public park located in Memphis' urban core.   The Conservancy's vision is to foster a beautiful, welcoming, and safe park that encourages our diverse community to explore, learn, create, socialize, and play.  Advancing this vision, the Conservancy operates, maintains, and improves the "crown jewel" of Memphis' public parks under a 10-year management agreement with the City. Since 2011, the Conservancy has raised and invested roughly $20 million in public, foundation, individual, and corporate contributions in the park's maintenance, operations, and infrastructure improvements.

Resources such as lodging when traveling for treatment, financial help with medical bills and other challenges, and the need for understanding and support.
