The $33 million renovation project for Houston’s Emancipation Park just received additional funding from several businesses and foundations. The Houston Chronicle reports that both the Kinder Foundation and the Houston Endowment pledged $750,000. In addition, the Kinder Foundation put up another $250,000 if it could be matched. H-E-B answered the challenge to make the grand total $2 million in supplementary funds to the Emancipation Park Conservancy.
