Community Partners are extremely important to keeping climbing areas open and conserving the climbing environment because they provide a direct link with individual climbers. Community Partners are a network of gyms, stores, school programs, and guide services, and clubs that support the Access Fund. Most Community Partners focus on a local community.

Create AF Coupons and ask customers at check out if they would like to donate a dollar or two (or more) to the Access Fund.
Stock up on Access Fund brochures.
Host a membership drive as part of an event.
Have a "suggested donation" to the Access Fund at the door of your event.
