You may have seen the Yosemite license plate throughout California with its beautiful image of Yosemite Valley. But did you know Yosemite Conservancy is the beneficiary of the California special-interest license plate program? Buying a special-interest license plate is a great way to show the world your love of Yosemite, while supporting projects that enhance the visitor experience for the four million people who visit Yosemite each year.
Proceeds Go to Yosemite National Park
When California drivers purchase or renew Yosemite special–interest license plates from the Department of Motor Vehicles, $20 from each transaction goes to support Yosemite Conservancy’s programs and projects in Yosemite National Park. The Conservancy allocates 100 percent of the funds directly to specific projects that protect the park, enrich the visitor experience and provide a margin of excellence for public-land preservation. In addition, funds collected through the special-interest license plate program provide for projects that are beyond the funding resources of the National Park Service.
