About Friends of the Muddy River

ANNOUNCEMENT:  After a long and productive life of approximately 45 years, the organization known as the Friends of the Muddy River will officially cease to exist at the end of 2025.  Isabella Callanan (1928 – 2008) unofficially founded the Friends in September 1980, which in turn became a charitable corporation under Massachusetts law, chapter 180 and the IRS code 501 (c) (3) in September 1981.  It was formally incorporated in August 1985.

Who We Are

About FOMR

The Friends of the Muddy River  was founded in 1980 by Isabella M. Callanan (1928-2008) along with a handful of Boston and Brookline citizens concerned with the environment and quality of the Muddy River and its surrounding parkland.  We are committed to the maintenance, restoration and preservation of this valuable urban green space and fine example of Frederick Law Olmsted’s vision and skill as a landscape architect.  

Friends of the Muddy River is a registered 501(c)3; all donations are tax-deductible.  Donate here.
