California State Parks Foundation

There are presently no open calls for applications.

For over 50 years, California State Parks Foundation has been the leading voice for preserving our state's diverse natural and cultural heritage. We focus on three areas of work:

Connect - We believe time in nature creates lasting connections between people and parks.

Preserve - By caring for California's state parks through climate adaptation and other place-based investments, California State Parks Foundation helps preserve what makes parks special — now and for generations to come.

Protect - California State Parks Foundation helps secure the state policies and funding that defend parks from threats, keep them open to all, and ensure they remain strong for the future.

Open grant opportunities will be listed here when available. If you would like to receive grant notifications please contact, Haley Gonzales, Community Partnership and Impact Manager, at, haley@calparks.org.
