Your Support Makes These Conservation Victories a Reality

Protecting America’s land and water resources has never been more urgent. In the face of climate change, habitat and forest loss, extreme weather and more — we must act now to conserve our most beloved places. Learn how The Conservation Fund is taking action below.

Conservation Along California’s Coast

California, our most populous state, also contains some of the most diverse ecosystems in the country. To date, we’ve protected more than half a million acres across the state — from its vast northern forests to dry southern deserts and many places in between. Take a look at some of our most effective and impactful efforts across California.

Protecting a Historic Black Beach in Maryland

During the era of Jim Crow segregation, these Chesapeake Bay beaches in Annapolis, Maryland were where Black families spent summer days and musical nights. The beaches hosted some of the most famous musical performers of the mid-20th century, including Ella Fitzgerald, Chuck Berry, James Brown, Stevie Wonder, Duke Ellington and many others. Now, the last undeveloped area of this historic place will become a new city heritage park.

 Preserving a Biodiverse National Forest in Georgia

Georgia’s Etowah River is a life source for many, providing clean drinking water for people and habitat for endangered aquatic species, including the Etowah darter fish. A recently protected addition of key river frontage to the Chattahoochee-Oconee National Forest will help safeguard this watershed for generations to come.
