“We want to celebrate the #EveryDayMoments that families and
friends can share together at their parks this summer,” said Jed
Scala, Senior Vice President of Consumer Lending at American
Express. “This contest encourages people to visit the National
Parks and allows them to document the natural beauty and rich
history that surrounds them—oftentimes right in their own
backyard.”
American Express is a premier partner of the National Park
Foundation’s celebration of the upcoming National Park Service
centennial with a focus on engaging a new generation of volunteers.
To engage the public in the celebration, the Foundation launched
Find Your Park, a bilingual public awareness and education campaign
to inspire people of all backgrounds to discover all that a park
can be, share their experiences with each other, and support these
treasured places and their programs.
With more than 400 national parks and thousands of historic and
recreational lands across the country, including natural, cultural,
and urban treasures, there are endless opportunities to explore and
find your own personal connections to parks. This past March,
American Express announced a $5 million, multi-year grant to the
National Park Foundation to support the efforts to increase
volunteering at National Parks and public lands.
“We are grateful that American Express shares our commitment to
connecting people everywhere to national parks and their programs,”
said Abbie Gibbs, Vice President, Corporate Partnerships, National
Park Foundation. “Together, we will encourage people to find their
park, inspire each other by sharing #EveryDayMoments, and raise
awareness about all that parks can be and all that they can
offer.”
