More than 100 volunteers from Timberland visited the Rail Park on October 13 for a daylong service project. In partnership with the Center City District (CCD) and Center City District Foundation (CCDF), the volunteers assisted with the installation of approximately 25,000 square feet of landscaping.

CCD, which is overseeing fundraising and construction, has begun to install new landscaping and site furnishings and is on course to complete the project in early 2018

There is still time for you to contribute to the project, which has been supported by the State, the City and several major foundations and companies including Timberland. Click here to donate today.
