National Fish and Wildlife Foundation

The National Fish and Wildlife Foundation conserves healthy populations of fish, wildlife and plants, on land and in the sea, through creative and respectful partnerships, sustainable solutions and better education. The Foundation meets these goals by awarding challenge grants to projects benefiting conservation education, habitat protection and restoration, and natural resource management.

The Foundation identifies conservation needs, reviews proposed projects, fosters cooperative partnerships, and commits a combination of federal and non-federal funds to on-the-ground conservation projects. Funds are committed in the form of challenge grants, ensuring that the Foundation’s funds are matched.
