Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore is fortunate to have more than 700 people volunteer to work in the park each year. All volunteer activity is appreciated, but the Friends does work that can’t be done by individuals. It obtains and administers grants and memorial funds which individuals, companies and other organizations wish to provide for the benefit of the park. The tax-exempt 501(c)(3) status of the Friends makes it possible for individuals to make gifts of cash or property (physical items or real estate) and allows the donors to claim legitimate tax deductions.
Mission – Protecting resources and heightening visitor experiences in partnership with Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore.
