Acres for America is National Fish and Wildlife Foundation's premiere land conservation program, and was established to provide urgently needed funding for projects that conserve large, landscape-level areas that are important habitat for fish, wildlife, and plants through acquisition of interest in real property. Acres for America was launched in 2005 with Walmart Stores, Inc. the founding partner. Walmart's goal as a founding partner is to offset the footprint of their domestic facilities on at least an acre by acre basis through permanent conservation of important wildlife habitats.
Approximately $2.5 million will be available annually through 2014 for conservation investments.
Annual pre-proposal deadlines are April 1 and September 1. For more information, see the web site below.
