We’re transparent with you.
75 cents of every dollar you donate goes directly to protecting climbing areas.
We’re results driven.
We’ve permanently protected more than 40 million acres of public lands, and counting.
We’re experts in public policy.
Our staff has more than 100 collective years of public lands advocacy experience.
We’re an accredited land trust.
To date, we have helped purchase more than 90 climbing areas, protected more than 13,000 routes, and prevented 19,000 acres of climbing-rich lands from being sold, developed, and closed to climbing.
We know how to collaborate.
We spend hundreds of hours each year working with lawmakers, land managers, Tribal governments, and private landowners to advocate for sustainable climbing access.
Access Fund supports a powerful network of 8 million climbers and 140 local climbing organizations across the country, putting boots on the ground to protect climbing areas, plants, animals, and cultural values that make them so special.
