Enhancing Encinitas

Investing in Our City Arts, Parks & Recreation
Who We Are

Helping Encinitas Thrive

The Encinitas Project is a long-serving nonprofit supporter and fundraiser for the City of Encinitas Parks, Recreation and Cultural Arts (PRCA) Department. We identify and fund priority needs that fall outside the municipal budget, ensuring our beloved community spaces and essential programs don’t just survive—they thrive.

Every dollar donated through us is raised by the community, for the community, and dedicated to augmenting the services provided by the City.
