  • Murfin Fund
    E
    stablished in 1988 “to sponsor guest faculty in the publications field at APPL training programs and conventions.” This memorial fund carries on the legacy of James V. Murfin who, as NPS servicewide cooperating association coordinator from 1974 to 1985, did much to improve the quality of association publications. The fund is made up of voluntary contributions.
  • Scholarship Fund
    Sponsors participation at APPL conventions and other APPL training programs for member associations that could not otherwise afford to participate. Applicants for scholarship funds must be APPL members and must be approved by the APPL executive committee.
  • Convention Sponsorship
    Helps APPL provide the highest quality educational training and networking events for nearly 700 convention participants annually. Sponsorships may be designated for speakers, educational materials, special events and receptions. Donors receive recognition in the convention program and at sponsored venues.
  • Program Grants
    Support capacity-building efforts and professional development of APPL members and partners to enhance visitor services, conservation, and public outreach efforts on public lands. Grants may provide for curriculum development, trainer training, workshops and seminars, strategic planning, specialized needs assessments and surveys, and other educational programs.
  • General Operating Support
    Undesignated or discretionary support, enabling APPL’s board of directors to apply the funding to programs and projects with the highest need and the flexibility to meet demands and fund projects that might not as easily qualify for program grant funding.
  • Volunteerism
    Volunteerism and other forms of in-kind support are central to APPL’s ability to serve its members and the public lands community. Members, agency staff, retirees, students, and others interested in APPL’s mission may participate in committee work, share their skills as trainers, or help to represent APPL at conferences and meetings. A number of opportunities also exist within the APPL office for skilled projects such as writing, editing, technology and web design, data entry, and other support tasks.
