NatureBridge, formerly Yosemite Institute, is the largest nonprofit, residential education partner of the National Park Service, helping more than 30,000 youth each year connect with nature through field science education, leadership and teacher training programs. NatureBridge's campuses include Yosemite National Park, Olympic National Park, Golden Gate National Recreation Area and Santa Monica Mountains Recretion Area.

Ivy Archer Winters recently opened her eco-conscious home -- the first completed unit in San Francisco's only platinum LEED-certified multi-unit building (NOVE) -- for a NatureBridge benefit event. More than $10 million in scholarships have come from NatureBridge's philanthropic partners over the past 38 years, allowing the organization to serve more youth, in more parks with more programs.
