Thank you for supporting Parks California or one of the Tour de Parks riders! You are here because someone you know participated in Tour de Parks to raise funds to scale our work across California’s 280 State Parks – the largest and most diverse state park system in the U.S.
We have an ambitious goal of raising $100,000+ through this ride, and we’ve received a leadership gift of $25,000 to get us there to support parks!
Your generous contribution will help us reach the finish line, and encourage those who pedaled for parks. You will help us ensure state parks are meeting the evolving needs of everyone – today and in the future.
Your financial help allows Parks California to build more park programs, including making parks more welcoming and inclusive, creating pathways to rewarding careers in parks for diverse candidates, and scaling innovative pilots to expand resource protection and climate resilience projects. Our goal: a stronger, more resilient state park system that benefits all communities.
Parks California is the statutory non-profit partner of California State Parks, founded in 2019 with the mission to strengthen parks and help enable everyone to enjoy them. Working statewide, Parks California helps parks and their local partners steward the state’s natural and cultural resources, and ensure equitable access to these public treasures.
During this joy-filled adventure, participants got a look at park innovations – from stewarding historic and cultural treasures, to protecting marine habitat, to elevating the stories of under-represented communities, to reimagining parks for the future.
