Women's Committee

What is the Forest Park Forever Women’s Committee?

The Women's Committee of Forest Park Forever – one of our most enduring groups – was formed in 1990 and is dedicated to engaging the community to raise funds to support the maintenance and restoration of Forest Park. Since its founding, the Women's Committee has raised over $7 million, primarily through one of our community's most well-known and eagerly anticipated events – the Forest Park Forever Hat Luncheon!

All who wish to support Forest Park Forever's work and mission by helping to ensure the success of the Women’s Committee are welcome.

 
We look forward to the different opportunities to connect with one another!
— Jordan Bouchard, Forest Park Forever Director of Major Gifts & Planned Giving
