Our Story

On October 1, 2015, the Sequoia Natural History Association and the Sequoia Parks Foundation, the two non-profit partners of the National Park Service (NPS) in Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Parks, merged to become the Sequoia Parks Conservancy. For decades, both groups have shared the common goal of preserving and enhancing the visitor experience in the parks through funding, education, restoration, protection, and visitor services. After much consideration, planning, and encouragement from our partner, the National Park Service, it has been determined that this combined organization will be the best and most effective way to service the parks, partners, visitors and the community.
