We're delighted to announce a new race partner, the Grand Canyon Conservancy.
Grand Canyon Conservancy is the official nonprofit partner of Grand Canyon National Park, raising private funds, operating retail shops within the park, and providing premier educational programs about the natural and cultural history of the region. Our donors fund projects including trails and historic building preservation, educational programs for the public, and the protection of wildlife and their natural habitat.
We exist to support Grand Canyon National Park in its goal to provide enriching and fulfilling visitor experiences and protecting the park for future generations. We achieve this by establishing a continuous and growing funding stream, providing enhanced educational experiences, and engaging advocates for the park.
Grand Canyon Conservancy’s vision for Grand Canyon is:
- A precious natural and cultural resource that is forever safeguarded.
- Indigenous people and connected communities who are thriving.
- Memorable experiences that welcome, ground, invigorate, and inspire.
Breathtaking from the moment you first cast eyes on it, Grand Canyon is just that—Grand. The natural and cultural significance of Grand Canyon makes it one of the Seven Natural Wonders of the World and a UNESCO World Heritage site. It is a sacred place of serenity and reflection that invites exploration and adventure, instilling both gratitude and humility. Grand Canyon is a cultural touchstone for those who came before and those who have yet to come.
