Make a Difference for the 100th
Thank you for supporting Washington State Parks with your purchase of the Discover Pass. The 100th anniversary of our State Parks is a pivotal time to assess where the system stands. Despite severe funding challenges, our parks are open and operational, with more than 40 million visits annually. Clearly, however, parks have suffered - staff reduced, maintenance deferred, amenities put on hold, and risk of closures.
In response, the Parks Foundation is surging forward with a new initiative to expand our reach and develop more resources to sustain our beautiful parklands. With the help of our donors as well as environmental grants from the Washington Women's Foundation and Peach Foundation, we are initiating a campaign to bring thousands of parks users together to ensure our parks continue to be the inviting places we love.
Please consider a gift this year to help us with this critical effort. With the past support of our donors, the Parks Foundation has funded many important programs- "Arts in the Parks," a new conference facility at Cama Beach, storm damage repairs on the Willapa Hills Trail, interpretive programs at more than 20 parks, and much more. In addition to supporting programs like this, each new gift will also help build a parks constituency network to act on behalf of our entire state parks system.
Please click here for a year-end donation to the Washington State Parks Foundation. Every generous donation, whether $10 or $1,000, is more critical now than it ever has been. Your gift is a seed you plant to keep the promise of State Parks for the next 100 years and beyond.
Sincerely,
Peter Reid, Chair WSPF
