Public Lands Foundation

2026 Fundraising Campaign

The PLF is running a fundraising campaign to “Keep Public Lands in Public Hands” that will run concurrently with the America250 celebrations during 2026, which celebrates the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence.

Part of the fundraising campaign includes the sale of several “Keep Public Lands in Public Hands” merchandise items that will support our advocacy efforts for the multiple-use management of our nation’s public lands for current and future generations of all Americans.

The PLF merchandise items can be ordered through the following link at https://bonfire.com/store/public-lands-foundation

It is hoped that you can support our fundraising campaign during 2026. Donations can also continue to be made to the PLF by credit card on our website or by check sent to the Public Lands Foundation, P.O. Box7226, Arlington, VA 22207.
