US national parks are to get $2.5 million of extra funding over the next five years, it has been announced.

Coca Cola North America today stated it has joined forces with the National Park foundation and National Park Service with the multi-million dollar donation designated for their development.

Travel insurance policies are sure to increase as millions of Americans visit national parks to enjoy outdoor recreation.

Mary Bomar, National Park Service director, said: “The National Park Service is dedicated to the conservation, protection, restoration and stewardship of nearly 400 natural, cultural and recreational sites across the nation and to working with communities to preserve their special places and to offer local recreational opportunities.”

“As we prepare to celebrate the centennial of the National Park Service in 2016, this timely commitment of partnership from the National Park Foundation and Coca Cola North America demonstrates the impact partnerships will have on the state of our parks.”

Squaremouth offers various travel insurance policies for US vacationers.
