The Trust for Public Land completed its first project in Hawai’i in 1979, an extension to Volcanoes National Park. In the years since, TPL has conserved land on every island, protecting more than 36,000 acres of pristine coastline, native forest, and working farmland. Working in partnership with communities and local land trusts, TPL has safeguarded culturally significant sites—such as Wao Kele o Puna and the Waimea Valley—while helping to pass more than $150 million in new county and state conservation funding.
