Wildlife Forever is a 501(c)3 nonprofit conservation charity. Audits reveal 96% of all donations go directly to mission. Since 1987, Wildlife Forever has funded conservation works in all 50 states and Canada with thousands of projects throughout North America.
Wildlife Forever is a visionary leader in conservation education for children and adults. We believe that conservation education will ultimately determine the future of America’s wildlife heritage. We believe in inclusion, diversity and reaching out to younger Americans who have not had an opportunity to experience the great outdoors.
Wildlife Forever’s Fish Art Contest has celebrated over 25 years as an amazingly successful conservation education program. Combining art and writing with science captures the imagination of students and fosters discovery of the natural world while increasing awareness of and respect for aquatic resources. Inspired by a brilliant fifth-grader from Minnesota in 1997, our annual contest attracts thousands of children each year from across the country and the world.
Whether you are a wildlife watcher, camper, hiker, hunter, or fisher, your favorite outdoor past-time is being threatened. Invasive/non-native species are destroying the habitat and food sources of America’s fish and wildlife. Wildlife Forever is the uncontested frontrunner in the national fight against invasive species and its highly acclaimed Threat Campaign continues to reach millions of outdoor enthusiasts each year.
From brown bear research in Alaska to artificial reefs off the coast of Florida, from habitat reclamation in Maine to salmon stocking in California, Wildlife Forever has benefited countless species across America. You’ll find our conservation projects in every state. Over 830 projects and counting.
