Voyageurs Conservancy

The official charitable partner of Voyageurs National Park.

Established in 1965, the Conservancy was the driving force to permanently protect the Rainy, Kabetogama, Namakan, and Sand Point region of northern Minnesota. Today, the Voyageurs Conservancy is a community of people dedicated to preserving, protecting, and sharing the unique experience of Minnesota’s national park. The organization is a 501c3 nonprofit that works directly with the National Park Service to support conservation and recreation projects, advance education and outreach, and protect the wild nature of the park. It continues to connect people to the outdoors where they can learn, volunteer, and recreate, while preserving the park for future generations. Its main initiatives include:

• WILD VOYAGEURS: Environmental stewardship and conservation of the park’s amazing lands, waters, wildlife and starry skies
• NEXT GENERATION: Educating children and young adults through the Voyageurs Classroom Initiative
• VOYAGEURS EXPERIENCE: Improving your experience and connection to the park and sustainable access for all
