Working Together We Can Make a Difference
To help ensure that Petrified Forest National Park is preserved as a natural area for education and recreation, to help educate the public about ways to preserve and enjoy the natural beauty of the Park, and to help educate the public about the Park’s natural and cultural resources.
Friends of Petrified Forest National Park is a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit fundraising organization (EIN 46-5506774), created in 2014 to help preserve, protect and maintain the natural and cultural resources of the park. The organization is run entirely by volunteers who love Petrified Forest. Our work is done in partnership with the National Park Service, providing volunteer support and funding for the park. We regularly solicit donations for projects in the park to ensure it is protected and can provide recreation and education for current and future generations.
