WATERFOWL/WETLANDS CONSERVATION

Promoting healthier more prosperous lives through practical sustainable solutions along the pathways water travels through our lives and the planet. We help communities at risk in Central Mexico confront environmental challenges—access to safe healthy water supplies most of all. We collaborate with technology innovators and social organizations to develop innovative, open-source solutions that address the diverse challenges of water quality and access, and positively impact communities beyond our borders through training and sustainable enterprise development programs.

The Catawba Riverkeeper Foundation (CRF) educates and advocates to protect the Catawba-Wateree River Basin's lakes, rivers and streams for everyone who depends on and enjoys them.

Watershed Protection and Restoration

The Texas Marine Mammal Stranding Network is dedicated to the conservation of marine mammals through rescue and rehabilitation, research and education.

MMPS Environmental specializes in research and education of the natural world, focusing on aquatic and terrestrial habitat restoration.

We use science to educate and protect. This is our mission. This is what drives us relentlessly forward. The challenges facing this critical apex predator are many, and seemingly overwhelming. More than 100 million are slaughtered every year for their fins. Climate change is dramatically disrupting the oceanic ecosystem and food chain. And mankind’s attitudes are indifferent at best; savage at worst. We believe science—rigorous, peer-reviewed, professional—can inform and guide governing bodies and society at large to conservation policies that ensure the sustainability of all shark species.

A group of citizens came together in the summer of 2008, bound by a shared commitment to the restoration of one of the largest impacted estuaries in New England: the Herring River Salt Marsh. Friends of Herring River was launched formally at the State of the Wellfleet Harbor Conference on November 15, 2008 and is a tax exempt organization under Section 501(c)(3) of the IRS Code. All contributions are deductible to the extent allowed by law. The purpose of the Friends of Herring River is to promote education, research and public awareness of the Herring River estuary as one of critical environmental concern, to preserve the native environmental integrity of the river and estuary, to ensure habitat protection and retention of the native biological diversity and productivity of the river and estuary, to retain and enhance public access to the river and estuary, to preserve natural and historic sites, and to promote public awareness. Friends of Herring River is pursuing this mission by undertaking the following activities: Informing and educating the public on the progress and key issues in order to build community-wide support for the project. Implementing outreach activities to ensure timely and effective public involvement in the restoration project. Supporting restoration objectives and worthy scientific, environmental, historical, educational, and recreational programs by fundraising, volunteering, and other useful activities. Friends of Herring River are actively engaged in the planning for the implementation of the project, fundraising, public outreach, and education as well as conducting the herring run count each spring.
