NPLD 2021 Impact
NEEF's annual National Public Lands Day celebration is the largest single-day volunteer effort for America’s public lands. Each year, hundreds of thousands of volunteers come together on the fourth Saturday in September to assist land managers with environmental projects designed to enhance and restore national parks, recreation areas, wildlife refuges, and other public lands and waters.
On behalf of our federal, state, and local partners, we would like to thank everyone who donated their time to improving public lands for this year’s NPLD. Through your hard work, you have helped preserve public lands for future generations to enjoy. This year's NPLD had over 500 events and engaged over 50,000 volunteers. Whether this was your first NPLD or your 28th, we hope it was an enjoyable and educational experience. And remember, it’s never too early to start thinking about next year’s NPLD!
