FUNDING
All projects and programs supported by NPLSF are funded through grants and private donations. We rely on your support, but it’s not just us – Lake Superior relies on your support, too.
​
When you donate to NPLSF, know that you’re helping to preserve the beauty of the greatest of our Great Lakes.

our role
We are the only official non-profit 501(c) (3) fundraising partner of the National Park Service (NPS) for all five US national park sites on Lake Superior.
​
As such, the projects and programs NPLSF funds fall outside the scope of the NPS budget. Without us, none of the restoration and preservation efforts we’ve funded would happen, and we wouldn’t be able to fund those efforts without you.
