Through sales of the National Park Collection, Pendleton is proud to support the National Park Foundation, the nonprofit dedicated to protecting and preserving America's more than 400 national parks. The National Park Foundation, in partnership with the National Park Service, enriches parks and programs through private support, safeguarding our heritage and inspiring generations of national park enthusiasts.

The Pendleton National Park Collection is a curated selection of lifestyle products including blankets, apparel, accessories, and pet products. The Collection is known for classic stripes and bold colorways.

"The national parks have been an important part of Pendleton's heritage from the very early days," said Pendleton CEO John Bishop. "Our National Parks Collection dates back to 1916. It is an honor to be able to continue to partner with the National Park Foundation to help support the inspiring work they do across our treasured national parks."

Pendleton's partnership has supported two landmark park preservation projects, including the restoration of the historic lobby of the Many Glacier Hotel, including its iconic helical staircase, in Glacier National Park and preservation and accessibility of the historic Grand Canyon Train Depot in Grand Canyon National Park. Pendleton's impact continues to grow through their current support of the Desert View Inter-Tribal Cultural Heritage Site at Grand Canyon National Park.

"Preserving and protecting the historic places that make up our national parks is critical work," said Chad Jones, Senior Vice President of Corporate Partnerships at the National Park Foundation. "Thanks to partners like Pendleton Woolen Mills, the National Park Foundation is ensuring these treasured places can be enjoyed by generations to come."
