The Conservation Fund is in the business of conservation, creating innovative solutions that drive nature-based action for climate protection, sustainable economies and vibrant communities.
A Unique Approach
We advance conservation in a new way, which means that TCF approaches conservation in a unique way. As experts in the complexities of land acquisition, we can step in to acquire at-risk land on behalf of long-term conservation partners who aren’t able to move as quickly. Without our quick action, millions of acres — important spaces and cherished places — would be lost forever.
We make conservation work for communities and natural spaces across America by shaping innovative solutions and enduring partnerships with communities, government and business, and by making sure that every conservation dollar delivers maximum impact.
Connecting Nature and Economic Opportunity
We believe that nature and people depend on each other — that land sustains us all. That’s why we approach conservation differently. We approach conservation with an integrated perspective, protecting America’s priceless natural heritage in ways that connect us and ensure our cities, towns and rural communities have healthy, resilient environments, places to work and play, and real economic opportunity.
Advancing Solutions to Today’s Challenges
Our 40-year track record of success across all 50 states has protected millions of acres. That translates into habitat for countless species, thousands of jobs, stronger communities and better, healthier, more prosperous lives. And it has put TCF at the center of efforts to tackle some of today’s biggest challenges — from climate to threats to wildlife and working forests to rural communities that need investment and opportunity and access to fresh healthy food.
