Caring and advocating for our public parks is essential if we want them to be healthy, beautiful, and safe for visitors from all walks of life. Every year, hundreds of Nearby Nature volunteers spend thousands of hours on native plant restoration and litter patrol in Alton Baker Park.
Support special not-so-nearby adventures for our Network Charter School students! NCS kids go on service learning field trips to places like Mount Hood in the fall and spring and take field trips to National Parks and Monuments in the spring. Your donation will help pay student fees for families in need as well as defray the cost of camping supplies, food, and transportation.
ur Haunted Hike in October, we sponsor a fun raffle. 50+ local businesses and individuals regularly contribute and friends and members win all sorts of great prizes — from nights out on the town to amazing artwork. Check out this year’s prizes to date below! THANKS so much to our generous donors! (Updated 10-13-19)
