Wild Places Need You

Why?

Because they are fast disappearing. And with them goes safe habitat for wildlife, rural ranchlands, the protection of clean water, and beautiful places to hike, swim, and fish. With support from people like you, Conservation Foundation of the Gulf Coast has permanently protected more than 12,000 acres of critical lands. But time is running out. 

You are the last generation that can save this land. Together, we will ensure that the human and natural worlds of Southwest Florida flourish together.
