National Geographic Partners is a joint venture between The Walt Disney Company and the National Geographic Society. Every year, a portion of National Geographic Partners' net profits is distributed to the nonprofit Society to fund work in the areas of science, exploration, conservation, and education. This unique partnership creates a virtuous cycle of storytelling and exploration that inspires people to act, enlightens their perspective, and often provides the spark to new ideas and innovation.
