National Fish and Wildlife Foundation

The National Fish and Wildlife Foundation is a private and non-profit organization dedicated to the conservation of fish, wildlife, and plants, and their habitat. The goals of the foundation are to promote healthy populations of fish, wildlife, and plants by eliciting new funds for conservation. This goal is met by creating partnerships between the public and private sectors and investing in conservation and sustainable use of natural resources. The NFWF focuses on the areas of working ecosystems and healthy habitats, conservation of critical species, education and stewardship, and evaluation and innovation.
The foundation does these things by matching grants, building partnerships amoung federal, state, and local governments, corporations, private foundations, individuals, and non-profit organizations, leveraging funds, and delivering revenue. Their vision is to have healthy, richer and more abundant popluations of fish, wildlife and plants for the future. Overall, the Foundation sees the value in collecting multi-facitied resourses and believes that the most lasting conservation is achieved with the support and commitment of neighboring communities that co-exist with our natural resources.
