Welcome to the Fund.

Our Story


Started in 2014, The Fund for People in Parks continues the tradition of private philanthropy that was at the heart of the founding and growth of the National Park system. 

By providing private funds and other resources for worthy projects that cannot be accomplished with federal funding alone, the Fund offers a critical margin of excellence that enhances the visitor's experience in parks.

We support the Fund's mission, not only to enhance the visitor's experience, but also to reinforce and expand the constituency of support of National Parks and the National Park Service, now and into the future."
