Please help us close our funding gap in this final stretch of the first phase of the restoration of the Erskine Memorial Fountain, Atlanta's first public drinking fountain dedicated in 1896!

Thanks to the generous contributions of the Grant Park Community, we have raised nearly all we need to complete this portion of the project, which includes the construction of the new oval knee wall and of course restoration of the fountain to a working state.

However, we are coming up $9,000 short on what is required and so are asking for your help in closing this gap. Even if you're not a resident of Atlanta, please consider making even the smallest of contributions and DO plan to enjoy the fountain when you visit Atlanta!


The Friends of Erskine  is an organization dedicated to raising the money required to restore the Erskine Fountain. We are partnered with the Grant Park Conservancy who is providing additional funding and project management of this effort.
