DONATIONS Naperville Park District is able to accept donations that are given for public purposes by individuals, businesses and organizations. These donations help the Park District in its mission and support the addition of new amenities that require additional funding. In 2022, the District received a large gift from the Rothermel Family Fund of DuPage Foundation that enabled the District to construct new pickleball courts at Frontier Sports Complex. The District also received a commitment from the beneficiary of the Frank J. Rus Trust to contribute $250,000 for the construction of a pavilion at Knoch Knolls Park. Additionally, the Park District entered into an agreement with Naperville Little League Baseball to accept a $200,000 donation from Little League towards converting the infields of two baseball fields to synthetic turf in 2023 and 2024. Many gifts were given toward the District’s Fee Assistance Program, which provides financial assistance to individuals and families in need so that they can participate in recreation programs. 2022 DONATIONS DONOR PURPOSE AMOUNT Beneficiary of the Frank J.
