Canyonlands Natural History Association

Canyonlands Natural History Association (CNHA) is a non-profit
organization, which exists solely to assist the National Park
Service, the U.S. Forest Service, and the Bureau of Land
Management in their education and visitor efforts. Proceeds from
sales support these agencies’ educational, interpretive, and
scientific programs on the Colorado Plateau.


CNHA has supported the parks and public lands of southeastern
Utah since 1967. Funding comes from memberships, private
donations, and sales from retail outlets and online store, and is
used to support our partner agencies’ educational, interpretive,
and scientific programs.


Since its inception, CNHA has donated more than $20 million to
our public land partners’ educational and research efforts.


Sam Wainer’s long-standing commitment to Canyonlands Natural
History Association (CNHA) and extensive experience in this realm
date back before he joined CNHA in 1996 (when he
started as a seasonal employee ). By 1997, he was offered a
permanent position as the warehouse and operations assistant and
soon after became the warehouse manager. In 2000, he was promoted
to inventory specialist, and in 2006 to operations manager, a
position he served in until his promotion to executive
director. 


Wainer and his wife Heidi have lived in Moab since 1996 and
raised two sons, Tobin and Kai. The entire family has been active
members of the community; Wainer has been a volunteer DJ at KZMU
Moab Community Radio and has coached local baseball, basketball
and soccer. He also chaired the Moab Area Travel Council Advisory
Board from 2013 to 2015 and served as president of the Peaks
Plateaus and Canyons Association.
