Our Story: Building Scarborough, One Step at a Time

Founded by a group of passionate Scarborough residents, Friends of Cornell Park began with a vision to create a safe, supportive, and thriving neighborhood for all.

Over the years, we’ve grown into a pillar of the community, working with local businesses, schools, and organizations to provide services that address the most pressing needs of our diverse community. We are committed to inclusivity, sustainability, and empowerment, and we aim to leave a lasting legacy for future generations.

OUR MISSION

Let's bring change.

Friends of Cornell Park is a grassroots, non-profit organization dedicated to improving the quality of life for Scarborough residents. Founded by passionate members of the community, we’ve grown into a trusted organization that provides valuable programs and services to people of all ages. From supporting youth and seniors to organizing environmental initiatives and cultural celebrations, we believe in the power of community-driven action.

Why We Do It.

Scarborough is a diverse and vibrant community, but like many neighborhoods, it faces challenges. From limited access to resources for underserved families to the need for safe spaces and environmental stewardship, there’s always more work to be done. That’s where we come in. Friends of Cornell Park exists to bridge those gaps and provide support where it’s needed most.

By offering programs that foster education, health, sustainability, and social well-being, we aim to make Scarborough not only a great place to live but a place where everyone feels at home.
