At our donor events, you’ll have the chance to connect with fellow Yosemite supporters, hear from Conservancy and park leaders, and learn about the meaningful difference your gifts make in the park.
All supporters who donate $25 or more are invited to Spring Gathering, our annual weekend of walks, talks, food and fun with park rangers and local experts, typically held in late March.
If you’re a member of our John Muir Heritage Society (minimum $1,000 donation, which is our Protector giving level), you’ll receive additional invitations to special events in Yosemite and around California.
