Memorial Park Conservancy is a nonprofit dedicated to protecting, restoring and preserving Memorial Park, the largest park in Houston, Texas, and one of the largest urban parks in the United States covering approximately 1,466 acres. During the first phase of its $300 million public-private initiative to redevelop Memorial Park, including the Eastern Glades Project and the Memorial Drive Land Bridge, Dini Spheris helped to raise more than $100 million toward its goal and guided a strategic planning process that transformed the conservancy from a volunteer-based group to a sophisticated organization capable of managing this historic public-private partnership.
