As a proud NCF Board of Trustees member, we are excited to announce our ongoing campaign to help raise money to support critical NCF programming like the NCF-Envirothon and the Next Generation Leadership Institute (NGLI).
Through the NCF-Envirothon, students like Kari from Missouri are exposed to issues affecting our environment today and to professionals currently working in the field. This hands-on learning experience has made a direct impact on many student’s future careers … and our planet.

Our #HarvestingHope campaign is gaining momentum, but we need your help to move it forward. Will you join us in making a tax-deductible donation to NCF to support critical programming like NGLI? It’s so easy to do, and the impact will be felt for generations to come.

As a National Conservation Foundation Board of Trustees member, I invite you to join me in giving to this year’s Harvesting Hope campaign. I know there are many worthy causes you can give to, and the holiday season is busy, but I want to tell you a little bit more about NCF and how your donation can help develop future conservation leaders.
As a board member, I see our two flagship programs' impact on high school students who grow up to be government decision-makers and local and state conservationists. They have a strong understanding of and passion for our natural resources and conservation practices through their experience in local, state, and national competitions. Your dollars can go to support the NCF-Envirothon and how it has embraced competition to capture the attention of the next generation of conservation stewards. Consider donating today to help these future conservation leaders!
Individuals already working or serving in leadership roles within local or state conservation districts can expand their skills through the Next Generation Leadership Institute. We are kicking off the fifth cohort in early 2025. We will bring together seven leaders from across the country to hone their leadership skills, bring their training back to their districts and look forward to how they can contribute at the state and national levels. This 12-month intensive learning program entails learning as much from the other cohort members as it does from the expert trainers brought into facility-specific skill sessions. When you contribute to this year’s campaign, you can help ensure the next generation of leaders is ready to ensure a focus on conservation continues with the Next Generation Leadership Institute.
Thank you on behalf of the other board of trustees for supporting the National Conservation Foundation. You can donate easily online here: https://bit.ly/NCFDonate2024. If you prefer, you can download this form and mail it.
The National Conservation Foundation is a 501(c)3 tax-exempt organization and your donation is tax-deductible within the guidelines of U.S. law.
