Where to Buy National Park Foundation Gift Cards & Earn Rewards

What a National Park Foundation gift card gets you

The recipient redeems the card as a donation to the National Park Foundation, the official nonprofit partner of the National Park Service chartered by Congress in 1967. The dollars fund work across America's more than 400 national parks: trail and habitat restoration, youth and education programs, historic preservation, and grants that the Park Service's own budget can't always cover. The tax deduction follows the redeemer, not the buyer — worth flagging before you gift one.

one format:

• E-gift card: Emailed within minutes, redeemable on the National Park Foundation's gift-card landing page. $10 to $500 via Dyme.

A single recipient can redeem multiple National Park Foundation gift cards toward one larger donation if you want to combine gifts from a group.

Where to buy: three channels compared

The National Park Foundation does not sell physical gift cards or stock them in retail stores. Distribution is digital only, through partner platforms like Dyme.

Can I get a National Park Foundation gift card at a discount?

No, and that's by design. National Park Foundation gift cards transfer at face value — every dollar reaches the Foundation. There is no discount channel, no resale market, and no third-party reseller offering them below face. What does change is what comes back to you on the purchase:

• Direct nationalparks.org donation. If you donate directly at nationalparks.org instead of buying a gift card, the tax-deductible receipt goes to you. Useful if the deduction matters more to you than putting the gift in someone else's name.
• Employer matching programs. Many employers match employee donations to qualifying nonprofits including the National Park Foundation. A gift card redeemed by a colleague typically doesn't trigger your match; a direct donation might.
• Workplace giving (United Way, Benevity). If your employer participates in workplace giving, routing the donation through that platform may add a corporate match on top.

When the goal is a gift in someone else's name rather than a personal deduction, the gift card is the cleaner path. Dyme Miles still apply on the purchase regardless of which channel the recipient redeems through.

Your gift goes further

Your gift goes further when bought through Dyme — the donation reaches the National Park Foundation at full face value, and you still earn rewards on the purchase.

Donation to the National Park Foundation

100% of the gift card's face value converts into a donation when the recipient redeems it. No platform fee is taken out at redemption.

• Where the funds go: Trail and habitat restoration, youth and education programs, historic preservation, and grants across more than 400 national parks
• Tax deduction: Available to the recipient (the redeemer) — not the buyer
• Verification: The National Park Foundation is a registered 501(c)(3) chartered by Congress; Charity Navigator and BBB Wise Giving Alliance ratings are publicly available

Direct donations are an alternative if you want the receipt in your name.

Your credit card

The Dyme purchase still earns whatever your credit card pays out on general spend.

Designs and personalization

National Park Foundation e-gift cards use the Foundation's standard branded card art. Designs are limited compared to retail gift cards — the focus is on the donation, not the aesthetic.

You can add a personal message at checkout. The recipient sees your name and message on the redemption email.

Delivery and timing

• E-gift via Dyme: 1 to 60 minutes by email. The recipient redeems the card on the Foundation's gift-card landing page.
• Direct donation at nationalparks.org: Instant. Tax receipt emailed to the donor on completion.

The National Park Foundation does not mail physical gift cards. All distribution is digital.

Corporate and bulk buying

The National Park Foundation runs corporate partnership and workplace giving programs for businesses that want to fund park restoration, youth programs, and preservation at scale. Gift cards can be issued to employees as part of a donation-matching benefit, and many employers match Foundation gifts dollar-for-dollar. Contact the Foundation's corporate giving team for setup.
