Who we are
The Land for Wildlife Fund was established in 1997 and is
an initiative of the BC Conservation Foundation (BCCF). It is a mechanism
designed to pool resources towards the purchase and preservation of natural
habitats.
This Land for Wildlife Fund is the central unitying element
of the BC Conservation Foundation (BCCF) operations. The general public
is encouraged to participate by donating and receiving tax receipts. Clients
are encouraged to work with the BCCF knowing that any surplus from administration
fees is allocated toward something they support; the purchase of land
for wildlife, the "renting" of migration corridors from land
owners ensuring wildlife values are kept as well as saving wildlife trees
from being harvested to meet the needs of surrounding wildlife.
This Fund is governed by a Committee that is appointed by
the Chair of the BCCF and consists of three current members of that board.
The committee meets twice yearly to consider applications and make recommendations
to the board.
