Rowing Together In Central Park

Urban parks provide an oasis of nature and tranquility in the hustle and bustle of modern city life. Our support of these resources, through taxation and volunteer efforts, give us space to share peaceful time with family and diverse peoples also enjoying this setting.

We see in this photo a father who has taken time out of his hectic life to row the children around the lake and enjoy this beautiful day. We see other families and individuals with, we can imagine, similar stories.

Ubuntu, living as an interconnected community, is expressed by taking the time to enjoy nature with others, supporting public officials who maintain urban parks for us, and volunteering to do our part.
