John Mayer Donates $10K to Redwood Parks Conservancy
Posted By Iridian Casarez on Tue, Jul 19, 2022 at 1:36 PM
Musician John Mayer has donated $10,000 to Redwood Parks Conservancy, the official nonprofit partner to Redwood National and State Parks.
"We are so grateful to John Mayer for his generous donation to Redwood Parks Conservancy! John's donation will support us in our mission to protect and preserve the world's tallest trees," the nonprofit wrote in a Facebook post.
The donation comes after a production company that filmed a Land Rover commercial in Jedediah Smith Redwoods State Park and False Klamath Cove areas in Crescent City featuring Mayer in 2020 apparently did not follow through with a donation promised to the nonprofit.
According to a Redwood Parks Conservancy news release, Mayer came to the rescue by giving a donation through his charitable foundation after the nonprofit asked for help in contacting the production company.
