2026 Sparkle Youngstown
Help us make Youngstown Sparkle!
As the holidays draw near and the spirit of giving fills the air, CityScape celebrates our shared work to make downtown Youngstown and the gateway corridors vibrant and welcoming. Your generosity fuels CityScape’s mission, and our collective impact continues to grow.
You have stood beside us, and together, we have:
• Planted over 30,000 flowers annually
• Partnered in the USDA TreeCorps Project to rehabilitate Youngstown’s tree canopy
• Maintained over 70,000 square ft. of public greenspace through three seasons
• Reestablished our city’s Holiday Parade – we started small 17 years ago and now have over 100 entries and marching bands from across the region
• Grown Streetscape Day (over 1,000 volunteers) and the Holiday Parade (over 15,000 in attendance) into two of Youngstown’s largest annual downtown events
• Saved the last working greenhouse in Youngstown, transforming a vacant property into a stabilizing force
• Created a citywide Community Gardening Resource Center with a demonstration kitchen, event space, and we’re developing a makers mart
• Planted over 400 mums for a colorful fall
• Prepared for spring with over 1,200 bulbs
For nearly three decades, Youngstown CityScape has partnered with dedicated supporters like you to move our region forward with bigger, better community projects. Your donations help us beautifully transform our city year-round—funding summer flowers and trees, winter evergreens and holiday lights, and continuous beautification. Your generosity directly creates a welcoming downtown we can all be proud of. As the holiday season of giving approaches, we are reflecting on our shared journey to make downtown Youngstown a vibrant destination. Thank you for standing with us. Together, we continue to make a meaningful difference.
We hope Youngstown CityScape, and our vision for a bigger, brighter Youngstown, is on your giving list. Together we are ensuring a safe, clean, and green downtown, supporting our city’s institutions and businesses, and promoting our region!
Don’t let this season of joy and giving pass without being part of the mission of Youngstown CityScape.
Your gift will help to revitalize downtown, keeping it safe, clean and green!
Over 90% of our support comes from donors like you. We are so grateful for all you do for our mission!
