The staff at Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore work closely with many federal, state, and local organizations.  The organizations mentioned here provide an example of the broad range of partners that help the lakeshore accomplish its mission.

Operational / Fund Raising Partners

Eastern National is a non-profit organization that provides quality educational products and services to America’s national parks and other public trusts, including Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore.

Eastern National operates bookstores at four visitor centers at Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore and also conducts sales by phone, mail, and website, "America's National Park On-line Bookstore."

National Parks of Lake Superior Foundation is a recently organized, privately supported effort to fund special projects in the four U.S. national parks on Lake Superior.  

Donations to the National Parks of Lake Superior Foundation assist parks with worthy projects over and above funding for basic park operations.

Community Partners

Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore has joined with many local businesses as "Community Partners" to better serve visitors to the area. Participating business locations have a comprehensive reference package of information about the park and a counter-top display and window-display placard identifying that location as a Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore Community Partner.
