Conservation Action Fund

Funds will be used to increase the amount of land conserved in southern Illinois for wildlife, families, and future generations.

With only 7% of farms and wildlife habitat in the southern third of Illinois conserved, we need to increase the pace of conservation. 

Families across southern Illinois want to conserve their land. Many who reach out to need assistance with expenses associated with conserving their land, such as legal fees, long-term care and protection, and related costs. You can help families take action to conserve their land.

With your help…

Funds will support the needs of families to conserve their land and its long-term care and protection.

You’ll be increasing the amount of land conserved in southern Illinois for wildlife, families, and future generations.

Your tax-deductible contribution will go directly to help families and landowners and related costs. 

Gifts of any amount are welcome, including donations of stock, contributions from an IRA or Donor Advised Fund, or by check.
