Pennsylvania Parks and Forests Foundation (PPFF) is a statewide nonprofit organization focused on the preservation and stewardship of Pennsylvania’s state parks and forests. Based in Camp Hill, Pennsylvania, it supports public engagement through volunteerism, education, and recreation, and enables citizen donations or bequests to land and park programs. The organization positions itself within the environmental services sector, acting as a voice for the state’s parks and 2.2 million acres of forest land while fostering community involvement on public lands. PPFF’s structure includes chapter friends groups that operate on public lands for broader public benefit, reflecting its charitable status and emphasis on inclusive participation.

Established in 1999, PPFF works to inspire responsible stewardship of natural resources by connecting residents with opportunities to contribute to park and forest maintenance and learning. Its activities and partnerships, including collaborations with national organizations, aim to highlight the value of state parks to local economies and community well-being, and to broaden participation in conservation through education and recreation. Recent developments include organizational updates such as appointing new leadership and expanding its office and retail facilitation functions, signaling ongoing efforts to support its mission from its Camp Hill base.
