The National Park Foundation noted that this $100 million donation will significantly enhance their efforts to restore vital ecosystems, emphasizing the importance of parks for future generations.
Will Shafroth, president of the National Park Foundation, stated that this transformative grant will allow them to undertake large-scale restoration projects, including coral reefs in Florida and trout species in western parks.
The foundation aims to utilize this historic grant not only for ecological restoration but also to create increased access for young people to explore and appreciate national parks.
This unprecedented sum marks a key moment in the history of US national parks, with plans to announce funding allocations later this year that reflect priorities identified by the Foundation.
