Join today and your gift will be DOUBLED to protect your national parks next year.

Dear Friend of the National Parks,

You and other NPCA members and friends supporters have headed off some serious attacks on our national parks over the last four years. And, despite often fierce opposition, we have scored some key victories.

Together, we helped pass the Great American Outdoors Act, landmark legislation to begin reducing the National Park Service’s nearly $12 billion repair and maintenance backlog. You also helped prevent 85,000 acres of public lands in Utah from being auctioned off for oil and gas drilling.

But our park-protection wins could be reversed next year and there’s no guarantee of more progress … unless we remain strong, committed champions of the parks.

That’s what makes our 2020 Year-End Matching Gift Campaign so critical. We aim to bring together dedicated park advocates like you to ensure America’s most magnificent places thrive next year and well into the future!

Will you pitch in to help make this campaign a success, friend?

Remember, every dollar you give by December 31 will be MATCHED 100% up to $300,000 by a generous NPCA board member and go TWICE AS FAR for the parks you love so much.

As a loyal friend of NPCA, you know that we have inherited a priceless national parks legacy from those who came before us. And we have a great responsibility to carry on that legacy for all who will come along after us.

Unfortunately, four years of ruinous executive orders and legislative attacks have done real damage to these irreplaceable places and the commonsense protections that safeguard them.

And the threats are mounting.

From the ongoing rush to allow oil and gas drilling in and around national parks, to attacks on the Endangered Species Act that could push some park wildlife even closer to extinction, to increasing air and water pollution, everything we love about our parks is at risk right now.

That’s why NPCA will be working tirelessly to defend your parks next year, just as we have for over 101 years … and we are counting on your loyal support more than ever.

Your tax-deductible gift of $15 or more will not only go twice as far for the parks, but brings you complete member benefits, including our award-winning National Parks magazine and exclusive NPCA member mini-lantern as your free welcome gift!

So please make your most generous year-end donation to NPCA today. Your entire new member gift will be MATCHED 100%, dollar-for-dollar, to help us mount another tireless and outspoken defense of America’s imperiled parks next year.

Thank you so much!

With gratitude,


Theresa Pierno
President and CEO
