We have a formalized Adopt-a-Park agreement, which creates an arrangement under which organizations can help the DC Department of Parks and Recreation maintain city parks. Friends of Friendship Park has tax-exempt status under section 501(c)3 of the Internal Revenue Code. Accordingly, all contributions are tax-deductible.

Friends of Friendship Park (FOFP) is run by a Board of Directors. Officers are Maria R. Creighton - President; Sheila Summers - Secretary; and Jennifer Meuwissen-Rose - Treasurer. Other Board members include Jonathan McHugh, Alexis Comrack, Paul Steinberg, Warren Weinstein, Jenifer Tidwell, Brett Scola, William Bruno and Joel Guiterman.
