The GearUp Fund was established by San Francisco Parks Alliance in 2009 at the request of San Francisco Recreation & Park Department to fill the funding gap for equipment at five newly renovated recreation centers – to enable their programming in early childhood development, after-school enrichment, youth sports, fitness, arts and culture, programs for older adults, and community events. Toward this end, over $250,000 has been raised and invested – fulfilling the needs of the initial five centers as well as others in the City.

GearUp is now moving to phase two – to meet the needs of other newly-renovated centers (see Betty Ann Ong Chinese Recreation Center and Sunset Recreation Center, below), and to meet the small-but-critical needs of recreation centers across San Francisco (see Instant FUNd, below) – so that children, youth, and adults can keep playing!
