Cold War~Cold Beer~Cold Blooded

The South Florida National Parks Trust (SFNPT) is the official nonprofit partner of four national parks in South Florida: Everglades National Park, Biscayne National Park, Dry Tortugas National Park and Big Cypress National Preserve. The SFNPT was founded in 2002 to support South Florida's national parks through fundraising and friend-raising. Since its inception, the SFNPT has provided more than $6 million in direct grants to South Florida's national parks to support park programs and projects in five critical areas: environmental education, resource protection, visitor programs, volunteer activities and community outreach. The South Florida National Parks Trust is a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization (tax ID 13-4341209). Charitable donations to the Trust are tax-deductible to the full extent allowed by law.
