By Kacee Saturay, Digital Marketing & Donor Stewardship Manager

New year, new gear! Our Holiday Giving Guide has you covered when it comes to meaningful, park-inspired presents. From candles hand-crafted by our new friends at Mountain Top Mentality to paint-by-number kits from Elle Crée and pendants from Robert Bank Glass — there’s something for every park lover.

This holiday season, make your shopping count by choosing gifts that support the places you love most: Mount Rainier, North Cascades, and Olympic National Parks:

Donate In Honor of Your Park Pals

By making a donation in honor of someone you care about, you support Washington’s National Park Fund and the vital projects it funds in Mount Rainier, North Cascades, and Olympic National Parks. Your thoughtful gift helps repair trails and facilities, protect wildlife, and advance science and research — it’s a meaningful way to say “I’m thinking of you” and take the guesswork out of giving, helping ensure these places remain vibrant and resilient for generations to come.

Plus, if you choose to provide their contact information, we will send a card or email to your loved one, or recipient of your choosing, to inform them of your thoughtful gift. Talk about a gift that gives back!

Iconic Park Experiences

Looking for a unique and cozy getaway? Imagine being able to relax just minutes after your long day of hiking or sitting by a fireplace in a historic lobby. Park experiences are among the best gifts you can give. Select lodges inside the parks participate in a guest donation program that directly benefits park projects. We’re proud to partner with these participating lodges:
