Fund for Wild Nature Offers Support for Environmental Action
Deadline: June 10, 2005

The Portland, Oregon-based Fund for Wild Nature (<a href="http://fundwildnature.org/">http://fundwildnature.org/</a>) provides money for campaigns designed to save and restore native species and wild ecosystems, including actions to defend wilderness and biological diversity.

The fund provides support for advocacy, litigation, public policy work, development of citizen science, and similar endeavors, as well as media projects that have a clear strategic value and a concrete plan for dissemination of the final product. The fund does not support basic scientific research, private land acquisition, individual action or study, or conferences.

Special attention is given to ecological issues not currently receiving sufficient public attention and funding.

Proposals will only be accepted for projects in the United States, Canada, and Mexico. The fund rarely provides grants to organizations with annual budgets greater than $250,000.

Visit the Fund for Wild Nature Web site for application guidelines and procedures, as well as examples of previously funded programs.
