Foundation Party
The Foundation’s Summer Party is a fun, social community gathering celebrating our generous donors and sponsors who have helped contribute to over 20 different projects throughout the Park. The Summer Party is typically held at a private residence within Grosse Pointe Park by a generous host who is willing to open their home for this event.
Be sure to save the date for the Foundation’s 2025 Summer Party, which will be held on September 11, 2025 at Amanda and Joe Backer’s lovely lakefront home. Tickets to attend the Summer Party can be purchased here. All proceeds from ticket sales will go towards the Foundation’s fundraising goal for the Windmill Pointe Park Children’s Pool Renovations project. The Grosse Pointe Park Foundation Party first started in 1984 and raised $3,515. For comparison, the 2023 Foundation Party hosted by John Francis and Kim VanElslander raised $150,000 and we are hoping to exceed that amount this year!
