We're In this Together
In the fight to save animals and the planet, we need every smart voice and perspective at the table before it’s too late. And we need those voices now. Every day we don’t act, as many as 150 species go extinct — and those animals are never coming back.
By supporting the work of women, people of color, Indigenous peoples, and other underrepresented communities, we bring marginalized voices to the forefront — and we inspire and educate tomorrow’s conservation champions, who will keep the web of biodiversity strong for generations to come.
Please join us as we build an inclusive community of conservationists to create more innovative solutions to solve the global wildlife conservation challenge.
What We Do
In the Field
Grant funding in the conservation field is sparse, and for the sake of our planet we do not want talented — but frustrated — conservationists to leave the field. We provide grants and funding to a diverse pool of current and emerging professionals saving threatened animals all around the world. We also create and sustain a support network for these conservationists through capacity building and professional development.
In the Class
We inspire youth both in the classroom and outside of it. Our education programs expose students from underserved communities to the outdoors — a vital first step to help them engage with nature — connect them to our conservationists, give them access to incredible role models, and provide them with the confidence to explore STEM programs and see themselves as conservation champions.
A Leg Up
We partner with conservation organizations and cover "first job" salaries and internship expenses to give an equitable leg up to passionate students and early career professionals from historically underrepresented groups. Our scholarships fund students pursuing a path into conservation.
