Return Reference Explanation
FORM 990, PART III, LINE 1 THE NATIONAL WILDLIFE FEDERATION IS A FEDERATION OF 52 STATE AND TERRITORIAL AFFILIATES AND THE NATIONAL ORGANIZATION WHOSE MISSION IS TO UNITE AMERICANS TO ENSURE THAT WILDLIFE THRIVES IN A RAPIDLY CHANGING WORLD. FOR MORE THAN 80 YEARS, THE NATIONAL WILDLIFE FEDERATION HAS BEEN UNITING AMERICANS TO ENSURE WILDLIFE THRIVE. OUR FOUNDER J. N. "DING" DARLING UNDERSTOOD THERE IS POWER IN UNITY. IN 1936 HIS BOLD VISION FOR A NATIONWIDE CONSTITUENCY OF CONSERVATION SUPPORTERS BROUGHT TOGETHER AMERICANS FROM ALL CORNERS OF THE COUNTRY. TODAY THE NATIONAL WILDLIFE FEDERATION IS A NATIONWIDE FEDERATION WITH 52 STATE AND TERRITORY AFFILIATES AND SIX MILLION MEMBERS AND SUPPORTERS. THROUGH HABITAT PROTECTION, RESTORATION, AND MANAGEMENT, OUR FAR-REACHING IMPACT HAS BROUGHT NUMEROUS SPECIES BACK FROM THE BRINK OF EXTINCTION, INCLUDING EAGLES, DEER, ELK, BIGHORN SHEEP, AND WHALES. YET IN OUR RAPIDLY CHANGING WORLD, OUR NATION'S WILDLIFE CONTINUE TO FACE CRITICAL CHALLENGES. AT THIS MOMENT, MORE THAN A THIRD OF OUR COUNTRY'S SPECIES ARE AT RISK OF EXTINCTION IN THE COMING DECADES. IN THE LAST 20 YEARS, THE MONARCH BUTTERFLY'S POPULATION HAS DECLINED BY 90 PERCENT. AMERICA'S FREE-RANGING BISON, WHICH ONCE NUMBERED 20 TO 30 MILLION, ARE DOWN TO FEWER THAN 5,000 INDIVIDUALS. IN THE FACE OF THESE CHALLENGES, THE NATIONAL WILDLIFE FEDERATION REMAINS AT THE FOREFRONT OF THE FIGHT TO TACKLE WILDLIFE'S GREATEST THREATS, WORKING COLLABORATIVELY TO INCREASE WILDLIFE POPULATIONS AND ENHANCE THEIR CAPACITY TO THRIVE. AS IN NATURE, WE HAVE STRENGTH IN NUMBERS. OUR ABILITY TO HELP WILDLIFE IS INEXTRICABLY LINKED TO THE DIVERSE EFFORTS OF THE INDIVIDUALS AND GROUPS THAT SUPPORT OUR MISSION. ACROSS THE COUNTRY WE ENGAGE WITH COMMUNITIES, SCHOOLS, GOVERNMENTS, AND OTHER ORGANIZATIONS TO BUILD AND NURTURE A COMMON COMMITMENT TO CONSERVATION. THROUGH OUR HANDS-ON PROGRAMS, POLICY WORK, COMMUNITY OUTREACH, AND MORE, WE FORGE A CONSERVATION ARMY OF MILLIONS OF PEOPLE THAT WORK EACH DAY TO BUILD A BETTER FUTURE FOR BOTH PEOPLE AND WILDLIFE - BECAUSE IN SAVING WILDLIFE, WE SAVE OURSELVES. AT THE NATIONAL WILDLIFE FEDERATION, WE'RE FOCUSED ON WHAT'S MOST IMPORTANT: SAVING THE ONE-THIRD OF AMERICA'S WILDLIFE SPECIES AT RISK OF EXTINCTION AND IN URGENT NEED OF CONSERVATION, MOBILIZING ACTION TO ENSURE OUR PLANET DOESN'T REACH THE POINT OF NO RETURN ON CLIMATE CHANGE AND CONNECTING OUR CHILDREN AND FUTURE GENERATIONS WITH NATURE. CONFRONTING THESE DAUNTING BUT INTERRELATED CHALLENGES ALSO OFFERS US IMPORTANT OPPORTUNITIES TO WORK TOGETHER TO RECOVER IMPERILED WILDLIFE, MAKE COMMUNITIES MORE RESILIENT AND RESTORE OUR VITAL CONNECTIONS TO NATURE. WITH THE ADOPTION OF ITS 2018-2021 STRATEGIC PLAN, SAVING AMERICA'S WILDLIFE: TOWARD A COMMON AGENDA, THE NATIONAL WILDLIFE FEDERATION COMMITS ITSELF TO REVERSING THE DECLINE OF AMERICA'S WILDLIFE OVER THE NEXT GENERATION. RECOGNIZING THAT HABITAT DEGRADATION AND LOSS, POLLUTION, INVASIVE SPECIES, AND THE PUBLIC'S GROWING DISCONNECTION FROM NATURE ARE ALL TAKING THEIR TOLL, WE LOOKED TO STRATEGIES EQUAL TO THE TASK: ECOSYSTEM-SCALE PROTECTION AND RESTORATION OF LANDS, WATERS, AND COASTS; WILDLIFE- AND HABITAT MANAGEMENT APPROPRIATE TO 21ST CENTURY CHALLENGES LIKE CLIMATE CHANGE; FULL ENGAGEMENT OF BOTH URBAN AND RURAL COMMUNITIES; ROBUST INVESTMENT IN THE NEXT GENERATION OF CONSERVATIONISTS; AND THE BUILDING OF A CONSTITUENCY FOR WILDLIFE THAT IS LARGE, STRONG, AND DIVERSE. OUR COMMON AGENDA INCLUDES A COMMITMENT TO: PROTECT, RESTORE, AND CONNECT WILDLIFE HABITAT: ACTIVE RESTORATION AND RECONNECTION OF FRAGMENTED AND DEGRADED HABITAT ACROSS PROTECTED LANDS, WORKING LANDS, WATERWAYS, COASTS, AND COMMUNITIES. TRANSFORM WILDLIFE CONSERVATION: ADVANCING 21ST CENTURY WILDLIFE MANAGEMENT, DEFENDING PUBLIC TRUST RESOURCES, AND CONFRONTING EMERGING STRESSORS LIKE CLIMATE CHANGE, INVASIVE SPECIES, AND WILDLIFE DISEASES. CONNECT AMERICANS WITH WILDLIFE: INSPIRING THE NEXT GENERATION OF CONSERVATIONISTS AND MOBILIZING A DIVERSE CONSERVATION ARMY TO BROADEN THE STEWARDSHIP ETHIC, CONSERVATION ACTION, PUBLIC AND PRIVATE INVESTMENTS, AND SUPPORT FOR POLICY CHANGES NECESSARY TO SAVE THOUSANDS OF AT-RISK SPECIES IN OUR TIME.
PART III, LINE 4A CONTINUED: WILDLIFE DECLINES ARE WIDESPREAD AND PERVASIVE - AND IN MANY CASES DRAMATICALLY SO. WORKING WITH MEMBERS OF CONGRESS, WE HELPED INTRODUCE THE RECOVERING AMERICA'S WILDLIFE ACT, WHICH WILL INVEST IN COLLABORATIVE, ON-THE-GROUND SOLUTIONS THAT MATCH THE MAGNITUDE OF THE WILDLIFE CRISIS. THIS BIPARTISAN ACT WOULD PROVIDE $1.4 BILLION IN DEDICATED ANNUAL FUNDING TO STATE AND TRIBAL FISH AND WILDLIFE AGENCIES. THE FUNDING WOULD GO TOWARD THE CONSERVATION, HABITAT RESTORATION AND MONITORING OF AT-RISK SPECIES. GIVEN THE WIDE RANGE OF CHALLENGES FACING WILDLIFE AND PEOPLE ALIKE - ESPECIALLY AMERICANS LIVING IN RURAL AND HISTORICALLY UNDER- SERVED COMMUNITIES - THE NATIONAL WILDLIFE FEDERATION BELIEVES OUR WORK AND PARTNERSHIPS MUST ENSURE THAT CONSERVATION ADDRESSES LONG-STANDING INEQUITIES AND INJUSTICES. WE WILL ONLY ACHIEVE OUR MISSION AND BE BETTER COLLABORATORS IF OUR WORK, STAFF AND PARTNERSHIPS MORE FULLY REFLECT THE DIVERSITY AND NEEDS OF OUR COUNTRY. OUR VALUED PARTNER, HECHO (HISPANICS ENJOYING CAMPING, HUNTING AND THE OUTDOORS) PROVIDES A PLATFORM FOR HISPANICS AND LATINOS TO PROTECT OUR PUBLIC LANDS AND WATERS AND ELEVATE OUR NATION'S MULTICULTURAL HERITAGE AND CONNECTION TO NATURE. THIS IMPORTANT PARTNERSHIP - WHICH HIGHLIGHTS THE STORIES, EXPERIENCES AND CONTRIBUTIONS OF HISPANIC AND LATIN AMERICANS - IS ESSENTIAL FOR BUILDING A MORE-INCLUSIVE AND EQUITABLE CONSERVATION MOVEMENT THAT ENGAGES ALL COMMUNITIES IN PROTECTING THE NATURAL WORLD FOR FUTURE GENERATIONS. WITH 85 PERCENT OF AMERICANS LIVING IN CITIES, TOWNS AND URBAN COUNTIES, WE HAVE A UNIQUE OPPORTUNITY AND IMPORTANT RESPONSIBILITY TO PROTECT OUR NATURAL WORLD AND CONNECT PEOPLE WITH WILDLIFE IN THEIR COMMUNITIES. IN COLLABORATION WITH THE DRUID HEIGHTS COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION IN BALTIMORE, WE SUPPORTED COMMUNITY EFFORTS TO TRANSFORM A VACANT LOT PLAGUED BY ILLEGAL DUMPING INTO AN INVITING GREEN SPACE FOR PEOPLE AND WILDLIFE. THROUGH OUR WORK TOGETHER, AND WITH SUPPORT FROM THE CHESAPEAKE BAY TRUST AND THE UNIVERSITY OF MARYLAND MIDTOWN CAMPUS, THE SITE NOW INCLUDES A PLACE FOR KIDS TO PLAY AND FAMILIES TO GATHER, AS WELL AS A POLLINATOR GARDEN AND RAIN GARDEN. WE ARE ALSO PROUD TO PARTNER WITH ARTEMIS, A NATIONAL WILDLIFE FEDERATION INITIATIVE FOCUSED ON BUILDING A DYNAMIC, IMPASSIONED SPORTSWOMEN COMMUNITY TO ADVOCATE FOR CONSERVATION. ALTHOUGH WOMEN MAKE UP MORE THAN 25 PERCENT OF ANGLERS AND ABOUT 20 PERCENT OF HUNTERS - AND ARE THE FASTEST GROWING SEGMENT OF THE SPORTING COMMUNITY (UP ABOUT 85 PERCENT DURING THE PAST 20 YEARS) - THEY SELDOM HAVE LEADERSHIP ROLES IN SPORTING CONSERVATION. ARTEMIS IS CHANGING THIS BY ENGAGING, ORGANIZING AND TEACHING SPORTSWOMEN TO BE A DISTINCT AND POWERFUL COMMUNITY OF ADVOCATES FOR FISH, WILDLIFE AND PUBLIC LANDS. OUR SACRED GROUNDS INITIATIVE BUILDS ON GARDEN FOR WILDLIFE PROJECTS AT HOUSES OF WORSHIP. NEARLY 1,000 PLACES OF WORSHIP ACROSS THE UNITED STATES NOW HAVE CERTIFIED HABITATS THAT SUPPORT COMMUNITY HEALTH, POLLINATORS AND LOCAL BIODIVERSITY. TO EXPAND AND DEEPEN OUR PROGRAMMING, SACRED GROUNDS WORKS WITH HOUSES OF WORSHIP TO NOT ONLY BUILD NEW GREEN SPACES BUT ALSO TO CREATE COMMUNITY-BASED PROGRAMMING AND INSPIRE CONGREGANTS TO PLANT NATIVE PLANTS AT HOME. AMERICANS' EXPERIENCES WITH CHERISHED LANDSCAPES AND WILDLIFE DEFINE AND SHAPE OUR NATIONAL CHARACTER, IDENTITY AND HERITAGE. THE NATIONAL WILDLIFE FEDERATION WORKS TO STRENGTHEN PROTECTIONS FOR PUBLIC LANDS AND TO ENSURE WILDLIFE CAN MIGRATE ACROSS CHANGING LANDSCAPES, WHICH IS CRITICAL TO THEIR SURVIVAL. WE SHARE A SACRED DUTY AND OBLIGATION TO PROTECT OUR OUTDOOR HERITAGE FOR WILDLIFE AND FUTURE GENERATIONS. WITH OUR GUIDANCE, COMMUNITIES IN THE SEVEN-COUNTY AREA ALONG THE U.S. - MEXICO BORDER KNOWN AS THE LOWER RIO GRANDE VALLEY ARE WORKING TOGETHER ON DESTINO MONARCA, A REGIONWIDE MONARCH BUTTERFLY CONSERVATION PLAN TO CREATE A HABITAT CORRIDOR EAST TO WEST ALONG THE TEXAS-MEXICO BORDER. LOSS OF MILKWEED - THE SOLE FOOD SOURCE FOR MONARCH CATERPILLARS - AND NECTAR PLANTS, AS WELL AS THE USE OF PESTICIDES AND HERBICIDES, HAVE CONTRIBUTED TO A DRAMATIC DECLINE IN MONARCH NUMBERS ACROSS THE EASTERN UNITED STATES. THE LOWER RIO GRANDE VALLEY IS AN IMPORTANT RESTING AREA FOR MONARCHS AS THEY MAKE THEIR JOURNEY SOUTH TO MEXICO AND AN IMPORTANT STOPPING POINT ON THEIR RETURN. THE HABITAT CREATED THROUGH THIS INITIATIVE WILL ALSO HELP MIGRATORY BIRD SPECIES. TO FIGHT THE SALE OF OUR PUBLIC LANDS, THE NATIONAL WILDLIFE FEDERATION AND ITS STATE AND TERRITORIAL AFFILIATES MOBILIZED SPORTSMEN AND OTHER OUTDOOR ENTHUSIASTS TO FIGHT STATEWIDE EFFORTS TO SEIZE FEDERAL PUBLIC LANDS. THE FIGHT ALSO TAKES PLACE IN WASHINGTON, D.C., WHERE WE WORKED TO DEFEAT PROPOSALS AND POLICIES THAT WOULD HAND PUBLIC LANDS OVER TO PRIVATE BUSINESSES, REMOVE ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTIONS OR ALLOW UNFETTERED ENERGY DEVELOPMENT. IN A MAJOR WIN FOR PUBLIC LANDS AND NATIVE SPECIES, THE NATIONAL WILDLIFE FEDERATION WORKED WITH VETERANS AND SPORTSMEN AND WOMEN TO EDUCATE POLICYMAKERS ABOUT THE IMPORTANCE OF THE ICONIC GREATER SAGE-GROUSE AND CONSERVATION OF ITS HABITAT. THIS GROUP WORKED TO ENSURE THE SAGE-GROUSE WOULD NOT BE PRECLUDED FROM BEING LISTED UNDER THE ENDANGERED SPECIES ACT FOR AN ENTIRE DECADE AND CONSEQUENTLY WOULD HAVE PUT ITS HABITAT AND OTHER SPECIES ACROSS THE U.S. WEST AT RISK. THIS WAS A HARD-FOUGHT VICTORY AND AN EXAMPLE OF HOW THE NATIONAL WILDLIFE FEDERATION UNITES DIVERSE ALLIES TO PROTECT WILDLIFE. RESTORING BEAVERS IN MONTANA: IN MONTANA, THE NATIONAL WILDLIFE FEDERATION HAS BEEN WORKING WITH PARTNERS TO RESTORE BEAVER HABITAT AND SUPPORT BEAVER EXPANSION AS A WAY OF IMPROVING RIPARIAN CORRIDORS AND MAKING OUR WATERSHEDS MORE RESILIENT. THE ONGOING CRISIS FOR WILD SALMON AND ORCA AND THE EXPANDING REGIONAL ENERGY OPTIONS IN THE NORTHWEST CREATE AN OPPORTUNITY FOR THE POLITICAL LEADERSHIP OF THE REGION TO COME TOGETHER AND REACH A NEW SOLUTION. THE NATIONAL WILDLIFE FEDERATION IS WORKING TO CREATE A SOLUTION THAT SAVES SALMON, REBUILDS ORCA POPULATIONS AND BUILDS THE BROAD COALITION NEEDED TO ACHIEVE SUCCESS. BISON ARE ESSENTIAL TO THE HEALTH OF THE PRAIRIE ECOSYSTEM AND NATIVE AMERICANS' WAY OF LIFE. THROUGH THE TRIBAL PARTNERSHIPS PROGRAM, WE WORK TO TRANSFER GENETICALLY PURE BISON TO PROTECTED TRIBAL LANDS ON THE WIND RIVER RESERVATION. THE NATIONAL WILDLIFE FEDERATION AND PARTNERS ARE BUILDING THE LARGEST WILDLIFE CROSSING IN THE WORLD FOR WILDLIFE TO SAFELY CROSS ABOVE 10 LANES OF FREEWAY. THE #SAVELACOUGARS CROSSING IS BECOMING A REALITY THANKS TO YOUR SUPPORT. WE ARE ACTIVE IN WORKING TO DECOMMISSION AN AGING UNDERWATER PIPELINE TO PROTECT NOT ONLY THE GREAT LAKES BUT MICHIGAN'S ECONOMY AND DRINKING WATER. THE NATIONAL WILDLIFE FEDERATION BROUGHT TOGETHER GOVERNORS FROM THE DELAWARE RIVER WATERSHED STATES, INCLUDING GOV. JOHN CARNEY (DE), GOV. PHIL MURPHY (NJ) AND GOV. TOM WOLF (PA), TO MAKE A SHARED COMMITMENT TO PROTECT THE WATERSHED. WE LED THE MISSISSIPPI RIVER DELTA COALITION OUTREACH TEAM TO BRING GRASSROOTS ACTIVISTS TO BATON ROUGE TO INTERACT WITH LEGISLATORS. THIS LED TO THE UNANIMOUS PASSAGE OF THE ANNUAL PLAN FOR COASTAL RESTORATION AND PROTECTION AND FOR $55 MILLION IN STATE SURPLUS TO GO TO THE COASTAL TRUST FUND. WE RELENTLESSLY ADVOCATED ALONGSIDE AFFILIATE PARTNERS TO SECURE OFFSHORE WIND COMMITMENTS BY STATES ALONG THE ATLANTIC COAST, REACHING A TOTAL OF 20,000 MEGAWATTS (MW) - ENOUGH TO POWER 10 MILLION HOMES.
