Arizona Site Steward Program Foundation
Through strategic fundraising and public education, we ensure the sustainability of the Arizona Site Steward Program's role in monitoring and preserving cultural resources.
By all means, get to know us...
You've chosen a great time to get involved. We are a new organization and there is plenty of room for fresh ideas and voices new to us!
Our Foundation was established in 2017 because dedicated Arizona Site Stewards wanted to ensure that our more than 800+ volunteer member- organization would always have a structure of support to continue our mission of monitoring prehistoric and historic archaeological sites.
Our objectives are few and specific, this makes it relatively easy for our community members to decide how they can help.
We provide public awareness and education about cultural resources and we fundraise to support the Arizona Site Steward Program.
Enough about us for now...
"Where do you see yourself fitting in?"
