At CNMA, we’re passionate about protecting and celebrating a national treasure—Colorado National Monument.
We strive to bring together a diverse group of visitors and community members to appreciate this beautiful park, while also connecting with one another and the natural world around us all.
Mission
The Colorado National Monument Association provides financial support to Colorado National Monument through a variety of community engagements and sales from our gift shop. This support fosters knowledge, passion, and dedication to enable stewardship and preservation of Colorado National Monument.
Vision
By supporting Colorado National Monument and engaging the community, we aim to create a healthier ecosystem within the park boundaries and far beyond.
Way back in 1964, the CNMA started a journey that has changed the landscape of Colorado National Monument and made it accessible to the world!

Our Family
It’s all about the relationships—we’re one big family here! The NPS and CNMA are working side-by-side to make Colorado National Monument the best it can be. We value our community too, and help each other out whenever we can.
The park isn’t just land, it’s part of our lives—it’s “your backyard,” an after-work escape, or a route for your morning jog with some amazing views thrown in. Get to know us: come join us at Colorado National Monument and around the Grand Valley!
Our Funding
National Parks provide respite and recreation. They protect delicate ecosystems and important cultural sites and stories. It’s evident in the mission of the National Park Service (NPS): “preserve unimpaired the natural and cultural resources and values of the National Park System for the enjoyment, education, and inspiration of this and future generations.”
This is a big undertaking, and many projects still remain without funding each year. We provide much-needed assistance to the National Park Service by boosting their capability to achieve their goals! With CNMA on board, they can do things in months that would take years. Let’s work together and make a real difference!
We Have Many to Thank
The Colorado National Monument is as majestic as the people who keep it alive. Our heartfelt thanks to the people who support this extraordinary historical landscape and its legacy!
