The National Park Foundation has launched an exciting sweepstakes in partnership with American Airlines, offering a grand prize of 500,000 AAdvantage miles and $12,500. This generous prize package aims to encourage travel to the United States' national parks, allowing the winner to bring three guests to a park of their choice.

Participants can enter the sweepstakes through the National Park Foundation's official website. The primary method of entry involves making a donation to support the foundation's mission of preserving America's national parks. Additionally, entries can be submitted by mail for those preferring not to donate online.

This initiative not only promotes travel but also supports the conservation efforts of the National Park Foundation. The winner will receive 500,000 AAdvantage miles, $12,500 for travel expenses, and luggage from BÉIS. This prize is designed to cover flights, lodging, meals, and car rentals, ensuring a comfortable and memorable trip.

To enter the sweepstakes, participants can donate any amount via the National Park Foundation's website using methods like Apple Pay or PayPal. For those who prefer, entries can also be submitted by mailing a postcard with their contact information to the specified address. No donation is required for mail-in entries.

The odds of winning the grand prize are approximately 1 in 1,361,390, making it a rare opportunity. Additionally, 100 runner-up winners will receive a National Park Foundation tote bag and a stainless steel water bottle, with odds of 1 in 13,613.

The sweepstakes runs until August 31st, with winners announced in early September. It is open to residents of the District of Columbia and all U.S. states except Washington and Montana. Employees of the National Park Foundation, American Airlines, BÉIS, and their immediate families are not eligible to participate.

This campaign underscores the commitment of the National Park Foundation to protect and enhance America's national parks. The funds raised will aid in preserving these natural treasures for future generations. American Airlines' involvement highlights the airline's dedication to supporting environmental conservation and promoting travel within the United States.

With daily flights to key destinations from Jackson Hole Airport, located in Grand Teton National Park, American Airlines provides convenient access to some of the most stunning natural landscapes in the country. This partnership and sweepstakes represent a unique opportunity to explore the beauty of America's national parks while supporting their preservation.
