Trails and public lands are central to our economy. For 2023 alone, the Trust for Public Land calculates that Colorado Springs’ outdoor spaces attracted $268.6 million in affiliated tourism spending. This spending generated $10.1 million in local tax revenue, supporting our teachers, firefighters, and other essential community services and personnel.

When you sponsor RMFI’s work, you invest in the landscapes at the core of our regional economy—more than that, you demonstrate to the community that your business cares about these landscapes and is willing to protect them!

If that is something you can get behind, contact Jess Verplank, RMFI's Executive Director at jess@rmfi.org.
