Connecting people to place

Give today and grow the Greenway!

Since 1991, the East Coast Greenway Alliance has led the development of more than 1,000 miles of protected greenways and continues to advance a safe, connected corridor for walking, biking and active transportation from Maine to Florida.

Protect the Greenway

Thanks to our work together over the past 30 years, 65% of the East Coast Greenway is either complete or in an advanced stage of development. However, future East Coast Greenway progress – even federal dollars awarded to projects over the past four years – is at risk.

We need your help to protect the East Coast Greenway.
