Mission

The mission of The Yosemite Fund is to provide broad-based private funding and resources for projects that preserve, protect or enhance Yosemite National Park. The ultimate result of Fund operations must be material improvement in the stewardship and quality of Yosemite's natural, cultural or historical resources or the visitor experience. Since 1988, The Yosemite Fund has supported over 200 projects totaling nearly $50 million in support. Our projects fix trails, restore vital habitats, preserve art and artifacts, provide educational experiences for visitors, and survey and protect Yosemite's wildlife.
