Mission Statement

The Fish & Wildlife Foundation of Florida is a nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization that seeks to protect our outstanding animals and plants and the lands and waters they need to survive. We work closely with the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) and many other public and private partners. Since our founding in 1994, we have raised and donated more than $50 million for conservation and outdoor recreation, including youth outdoor education.

About This Cause

The Fish & Wildlife Foundation of Florida, Inc. was formed on September 29, 1994, as a nonprofit organization to support the health and well-being of Florida’s fish and wildlife resources and their habitats. We are the citizen-support organization of the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) and work with a variety of other public and private organizations to achieve our science-based conservation, research, education, and outdoor recreation goals. Our grantmaking traditionally focuses on providing outdoor education and recreational opportunities for youth, combatting invasive species like lionfish, improving management of wildlife habitats and fisheries, protecting Florida’s freshwater springs, and improving public access to hunting, fishing and boating resources. As a nonprofit organization, we accept charitable contributions toward these and other conservation programs in Florida and surrounding waters. The Fish & Wildlife Foundation of Florida, in addition to its close alliance with FWC, works with a broad array of other states, local and federal agencies, local communities, businesses, universities, research institutions and non-profit organizations. These include The Florida Youth Conservation Centers Network, The Florida Department of Environmental Protection, Florida Department of Health, Florida State Parks, The U. S. Fish & Wildlife Service, American Sportfishing Association, Bat Conservation International, Bonefish & Tarpon Trust, Coastal Conservation Association, Defenders of Wildlife, Florida Aquarium, Florida Wildlife Corridor, Future of Hunting in Florida, Marine Discovery Center, National Wild Turkey Federation, Recreational Boating & Fishing Foundation, Sea to Shore Alliance, The Nature Conservancy, and United Waterfowlers – Florida.
