In April 2015, The Conservation Alliance invested $800,000 in grassroots conservation organizations. Each grant went to a project working to secure permanent protection for a specific threatened wild place.
On April 1, we received 24 final reports from organizations funded in April, 2015, and 20 interim reports from organizations funded in October, 2015. These reports play a key role in helping us determine the return on our investment. Conservation Alliance grantees funded in the last 12 months reported eight conservation victories, permanently protecting 2,269,892 acres, four river miles and one climbing area.
Following is a summary of the progress our grantees have made with our funding. Download the final report summaries and notable interim report summaries here.
