Thanks the Fund and its partners, more than 1,500 acres of Indiana's vital landscapes are now protected - preserving wildlife habitat, safeguarding water quality and enhancing recreation opportunities for all Americans.
Established in 2001 with a generous grant from the Charles Stewart Mott Foundation, the Great Lakes Revolving Fund enables The Conservation Fund to provide technical assistance and bridge financing to local land trusts. A recent loan enabled the Lake Heritage Parks Foundation to conserve 84 acres of wetlands and remnant oak savannah along the Oak Savannah Trail Greenway. Now managed by Lake County Parks and Recreation, the new public corridor connects to a popular eight-mile hiking and biking path.
At the Fund we help save wild havens: large, natural spaces for wildlife to be exactly that—wild. Your gift ensures that wildlife, like this bear cub, has the habitat it needs to thrive.
Peg Kohring, director of the Fund's work in the Midwest, is based in Michigan. She works with community leaders across the region. "We’re the tools in the hands of communities, helping to make conservation happen.”
