At the end of every year, as we tally up the total amount of dollars raised for critical projects in Mount Rainier, North Cascades, and Olympic National Parks, we encounter a frustrating issue: many projects get so close to being fully funded but aren’t quite there.
Sometimes it’s a difference of a few thousand dollars – other times, it might be as little as a few hundred dollars needed to bring the project to fruition.
That’s where the Over the Top Society comes in.
The Over the Top Society is a circle of park supporters who pledge $1,200 or more per year to Washington’s National Park Fund. These gifts are not restricted to specific projects, providing the flexibility to take partially funded park projects “over the top” at the end of each fiscal year.
Sustaining gifts such as Washington’s National Park Fund’s Over the Top contributions help our national parks weather challenging times and are a tangible way of personally committing to their preservation for all time.
– Antonio Rufin, Over the Top Society member since 2019
You can give in the way that makes most sense for you – whether that’s contributing an annual gift in one lump sum or spreading it out over the year into monthly payments of $100 or quarterly payments of $300.
Over the Top Society members receive exclusive access to exclusive recognition events with park leadership and special insider updates. Join today and make a difference in what projects can take off in the parks.
