The Shenandoah National Park Trust is an official partner of the National Park Service.


WHY THE TRUST

• To help protect Shenandoah National Park’s 200,000 acres of wild lands and wildlife from the impacts of climate change • To help preserve historical structures that tell the stories of Appalachian mountain life, the Civilian Conservation Corps, and even the 31st president of the United States

PRESERVE

CONNECT

Your support restores native habitats that are threatened by the invasion of non-native plants and insects. Strengthening our forests bolsters their resilience to the impacts of climate change.

Your funding connects people to their park in ways that would otherwise be impossible— from covering field trip costs for underserved schools, to creating programs that make the connection between wild places and the arts.

EDUCATE

ENHANCE

Help us immerse children, young adults and disadvantaged youth in hands-on experiences in Shenandoah National Park. Opportunities range from day trips to weeklong camps to summer internships.

Through specialized trainings, your philanthropy enhances park rangers’ expertise in their line of work, ensuring excellence amongst the men and women who manage these 200,000 acres.
