Chattahoochee National Park Conservancy

Chattahoochee National Park Conservancy enhances Chattahoochee River National Recreation Area by building community, enriching lives, and catalyzing support to ensure a sustainable national park for future generations. Since 2012, Chattahoochee National Park Conservancy (CNPC) has been the official friends group and primary philanthropic partner of Chattahoochee River National Recreation Area (CRNRA). The funds we raise helps keep the park beautiful and accessible for all who visit. From improving and building trails, to keeping the river clean, to restoring habitats for wildlife, to funding educational programming, your support makes a real difference. By standing with CNPC, you’re helping to create a legacy of stewardship and care for a place that gives so much to all of us. Together, we can ensure the Chattahoochee River National Recreation Area remains a place of beauty, healing, and connection - now and for generations to come. Our history is deeply interwoven with the history of the Chattahoochee River National Recreation Area (CRNRA) itself. Our incredible park came to life thanks to the vision and hard work of passionate people and organizations who saw the Chattahoochee River and its greenspaces as more than just beautiful scenery, but also as a sanctuary for wildlife and a gathering place for the metro Atlanta community. Their dedication laid the groundwork for preserving this special place where recreation, education, and conservation come together.
