Grand Canyon Association, the official nonprofit partner of Grand Canyon National Park, is now the Grand Canyon Conservancy. The name change coincides with the beginning of Grand Canyon National Park’s Centennial celebrations, which will take place throughout 2019. As the park’s official nonprofit partner, Grand Canyon Conservancy raises private funds, operates retail shops within the park, and provides guided educational programs about the natural and cultural history of the region. Funded projects also include trails and historic building preservation and the protection of wildlife and their natural habitat. Founded in 1932, the organization currently provides millions of dollars to support the Park.
