Please Help the Friends Support Mason Neck State Park

Virginia's tight budget situation means that Mason Neck State Park and other parks have difficulty funding all of the improvements that would contribute to guests' experiences. We at the Friends are proud that thanks to the generosity of our donors, we have been able to spend nearly $150,000 on improvements at the park since 2015. Donations to the Friends have allowed us to fund projects as varied as resurfaced trails, improved access to the picnic area, a safe surface for the children's playground, habitats for the park's turtle and frogs in the Visitor Center, a station providing real-time weather information at the park, and more.
We have big plans for the future, but whether they become reality will depend on your generosity. Please help us support the conservation, enhancement, and interpretation of Mason Neck State Park's natural, educational, recreational, cultural, and historic resources by making a tax-deductible contribution today. The Friends of Mason Neck State Park is an all-volunteer Section 501(c)(3) charitable organization.
If you receive Required Minimum distributions from your Traditional IRA, you can make a donation directly to the Friends from the IRA. This donation, which is known as a Qualified Charitable Donation, is excluded from Federal income tax. This can be a preferred way to make a contribution if you can't claim a Federal income tax donation for a charitable contribution. Ask your IRA administrator about making a QCD to the Friends. Your tax advisor can give you information about the impact of a QCD on your taxes.
