Donate to the Nature Scholars Foundation

Nature Scholars Foundation is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit association dedicated to inspiring curiosity, confidence, and a lifelong love of nature in children - especially those from underserved communities - through storytelling, education, and access to America’s national parks.

​

We create pathways for young learners to explore the natural world through:

  • engaging books and storytelling experiences, including the Tripp the Tumbleweed series;

  • educational programs and workbooks that support teachers and after-school programs;

  • hands-on learning opportunities that spark environmental stewardship and imagination.​

​

Together, we can help children see themselves as explorers, learners, and future caretakers of our planet - one park and one story at a time.
