Happy GivingTuesday! I’m reaching out to ask for your help in supporting something very close to my heart: our amazing National Parks. These places are so much more than beautiful views—they’re where we go to challenge ourselves, find inspiration, and connect with something bigger than ourselves.

Your donation to Washington’s National Park Fund goes directly to projects that matter—protecting wildlife, restoring trails, and creating educational programs that bring people closer to nature. Every dollar makes a difference, and together, we can help keep these treasures thriving for generations to come.

For me, the parks are personal. I’ve had the privilege of being a Board Member for Washington’s National Park Fund (WNPF) and even working as an Interpretive Ranger in our National Parks. I’ve spent hours leading hikes, sharing stories about the parks’ history and wildlife, and watching people light up as they experience the magic of these places for the first time. These parks have given me so much, and that’s why I’m passionate about giving back to them.

💚 A Little Thank You from Me to You 💚

If you donate $50 or more, I’d love to send you a handcrafted Mount Rainier ornament that I made myself! It’s my way of saying thank you for supporting something so close to my heart.

Let’s make a difference together this GivingTuesday. You can learn more or donate at www.wnpf.org. Every little bit counts, and it means the world to me—and to our parks!

Thank you so much for being part of this journey with me,
