GHKP CONSERVATION FUND
With our region's continued growth, the protection of valuable, conservable land is essential to our greater Gig Harbor and Key Peninsula community’s environmental health, economic vitality and resiliency.
Through the GHKP Conservation Fund, you can help make possible diverse efforts to protect area lands for open space, wildlife corridors, historic significance or to help balance our built environment.
The Fund's visionary founders, sought to establish an endowed fund that would help ensure financial resources were available locally as opportunities arose to safeguard area lands and protect nature as both an economic and community asset that provides open space, important cultural ties, habitat, respite, biodiversity, air and water recharge, and much more.
​
VISION STATEMENT
To help protect our greater peninsula's most critical lands and waters to offer greater access to nature, strengthen our community and support climate resiliency.

are within the City of Gig Harbor's UGA,
-
provide core habitat functions for area fauna and flora,
-
contain viewsheds or important scenic views,
-
are considered to have cultural, historical, or archeological significance,
