Individual Giving

Individual gifts

Individual gifts provide stability for the Foundation to accomplish our stewardship, education, and wildflower program work, while also helping us build a strong base for the future. Donors like you help us maintain durable trails, provide impactful education for hundreds of thousands of annual visitors, and glory in the splendid wildflower season through our annual festival.

Recurring Gifts

Recurring monthly gifts ensure the future of this important work in these world-renown canyons.  For less than a dollar a day, at the $20 a month level, donors like you create impactful and meaningful groundwork for protecting this critical watershed and recreation resource. Help us support the vitality and viability of the Cottonwood Canyons for generations to come.
