20th Anniversary Online!

The Wildlife Habitat Council’s first 20 years have been marked with groundbreaking successes, including engaging over 1,500 corporate programs around the globe in on-the-ground conservation efforts on private lands. This 20th Anniversary year is a year of 20/20 vision: looking back at 20 years of success and looking ahead to 20 years of Collaboration for Conservation.

WHC’s new Collaborations for Conservation website is the best way to stay connected and celebrate 20 years of conservation. Visit www.whccollaborations.org today to learn more.
