​​Help Keep the Dunes Wild and Whole

Federal resources alone can’t meet the growing needs of our National Lakeshore. That’s where the Friends come in. Your year-end donation directly funds:

  • Park Accessibility: Track chairs and adaptive bikes that help families explore beaches and trails together.

  • Visitor Safety: Life-saving emergency gear, like AEDs, for Park Rangers responding when seconds count.

  • Wildlife & Shoreline Health: Active protection for endangered Piping Plovers.

  • Clean Water & Beach Safety: Advanced testing equipment for same-day swim advisories and invasive species detection.

Celebrate the new season by investing in the park you love. Every dollar stays right here at Sleeping Bear Dunes.

Refunds

Donations will be refunded in full if requested within 30 days of when the donation was made.
