Donate

The National Park Service preserves unimpaired the natural and cultural resources and values of the national park system for the enjoyment, education, and inspiration of this and future generations.

You can make a donation directly to the National Park Service via donation boxes at the Plains Inn and Antiques Mall. Donations collected at this box are used to improve exhibits at these facilities and to offer educational programs.
