Memphis River Parks Partnership is a nonprofit organization based in Memphis, Tennessee, that manages, activates and maintains five miles of riverfront parks on behalf of the City of Memphis. The organization aims to create a connected, catalytic, and enjoyable riverfront experience for Memphians, focusing on stewardship and public access to green space along the Mississippi river. Serving the local community and visitors, it addresses urban riverfront revitalization needs by coordinating park activation, maintenance, and programming to enhance the user experience and safety along the waterfront.

 Positioned within the nonprofit sector, the partnership operates in the regional park and public spaces domain, contributing to the revitalization and programming of the riverfront. Although its leadership and programmatic activities have evolved over time, recent developments include launching an interactive trail at Tom Lee Park and forming a collaboration with Literacy Mid-South to support literacy-centered engagement tied to the trail. The organization is based in Memphis and serves the surrounding area, with ongoing efforts to maintain and enhance the riverfront for residents and guests.
