Membership | Cal Parks

We could not accomplish any of our work without the support of our members. 

Members of California State Parks Foundation not only provide significant financial support to protect and preserve parks but are part of a movement of people that are passionate and willing to act. When parks are threatened by funding shortages, closures, environmental factors, or lack of participation from the public, California State Parks Foundation can activate this base of passionate park supporters. Members raise their voices through our advocacy efforts, sign action alerts and petitions, and ensure legislation and policy are keeping parks a priority in Sacramento. Members also give their time by volunteering to make park improvements across the state of California.  

California State Parks Foundation members are an irreplaceable asset that allows the mission to live beyond the work in parks, and onto current and future generations of park stewards.
