Your gift to AMC's annual fund helps support many important projects throughout the year.
In 2008, your donations helped:
- maintain 1,700 miles of trails
- educate 28,000 young people
- protect 10,000 acres in the Mid-Atlantic Highlands
And those are just a few of the projects you supported! Plus, a gift to AMC's Annual Fund supports our mission to promote the protection, enjoyment, and wise use of the mountains, rivers, and trails of the Appalachian region.
