Founded in 1984, Mission Heritage Partners’ mission is to preserve, protect and promote the San Antonio Missions National Historical Park.
As the official Non-profit 501(c)(3) "friends" group to San Antonio Missions National Historical Park, we represent a community of people committed to filling the funding and advocacy gap for the four Missions within the Park.
With your help, we do this by:
- Advocating for the park's protection and ongoing stewardship
- Raising funds for preservation, protection, and education projects
- Recruiting volunteers and partners to bolster the park's limited federal budget
- Increasing public awareness and community engagement to build a larger community of visitors, supporters, and advocates
The Volunteers-In-Parks (VIP) Program supplies the San Antonio Missions with professional docents who provide important visitor services at the four Spanish Missions. The goal is for VIPs to offer timely details and information about the Park’s resources upon the visitors’ arrival.
The Mission Heritage Partners provides a variety of funds to support the VIP Program, underwriting background checks, purchasing uniforms and nametags, providing training, recognition events and supplies the volunteers need during their activities. Volunteers at the Park contribute in excess of 10,600 hours annually, the equivalent of more than five permanent, full-time employees.
