Who We Are
Yosemite Conservancy is a nonprofit dedicated to preserving Yosemite National Park’s resources and providing enriching visitor experiences in the park. Our philanthropic partnership with Yosemite goes back more than 100 years.
What We Do
With support from people like you, we help visitors connect with Yosemite through adventures, volunteering and the arts, and we fund grants for high-priority projects, including restoration, educational programs and research.
Our Impact
Thanks to supporters, we’ve provided over $172 million to Yosemite for more than 900 completed projects. Donor gifts help improve trails, restore habitat, protect wildlife, inspire the next generation of nature-lovers and more. Explore our funding areas to see current and past projects.-
