As a hub for conservation funding in Wisconsin, we provide financial support and other services to hundreds of conservation and education organizations across Wisconsin. By investing in our partners, we hope to ensure you are effective, sustainable, and able to address the most important needs for Wisconsin\u2019s natural resources, now and into the future.<\/p>\n
As a nonprofit organization we understand that operational support can be the most difficult to raise, but is just as critical to your mission as project and program funding. We are here to work with your organization to help you raise sustainable funding. Through our Wisconsin Conservation Endowment<\/a>, we hold agency endowment funds for tax-exempt organizations that provides permanent, sustainable support for conservation and education work in Wisconsin.<\/p>\n We work with organizations including Trout Unlimited, River Alliance of Wisconsin, Wisconsin Society for Ornithology, Friends of Wisconsin State Parks, and many others to further those organizations\u2019 conservation missions.<\/p>\n Through our CD Besadny Conservation Fund<\/a> we accept applications for capacity-building investments such as internships, website development, educational materials, and other needs that help further your conservation mission.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ admin_label=”Section” _builder_version=”3.22″ da_disable_devices=”off|off|off” da_is_popup=”off” da_exit_intent=”off” da_has_close=”on” da_alt_close=”off” da_dark_close=”off” da_not_modal=”on” da_is_singular=”off” da_with_loader=”off” da_has_shadow=”on”][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_3,1_3,1_3″ _builder_version=”3.25″][et_pb_column type=”1_3″ _builder_version=”3.25″ custom_padding=”|||” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_number_counter title=”Dollars invested from Besadny Grants” number=”605 K” percent_sign=”off” admin_label=”total nonprofit grants” module_class=”reg-font-weight” _builder_version=”4.9.2″ title_font=”Open Sans||||||||” title_line_height=”28px” number_font=”Georgia|700||||on|||” number_text_align=”center” number_font_size=”50″ number_letter_spacing=”1px” number_line_height=”50″][\/et_pb_number_counter][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_3″ _builder_version=”3.25″ custom_padding=”|||” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_number_counter title=”Organizations supported” number=”779″ percent_sign=”off” admin_label=”Orgs Supported” module_class=”reg-font-weight” _builder_version=”4.9.2″ title_font=”Open Sans||||||||” title_line_height=”28px” number_font=”Georgia|700||||on|||” number_text_align=”center” number_font_size=”50″ number_letter_spacing=”1px” number_line_height=”50″][\/et_pb_number_counter][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_3″ _builder_version=”3.25″ custom_padding=”|||” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_number_counter title=”Agency endowments held” number=”34″ percent_sign=”off” admin_label=”agency endowments” module_class=”reg-font-weight” _builder_version=”4.9.2″ title_font=”Open Sans||||||||” title_line_height=”28px” number_font=”Georgia|700||||on|||” number_text_align=”center” number_font_size=”50″ number_letter_spacing=”1px” number_line_height=”50″][\/et_pb_number_counter][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ admin_label=”Section” _builder_version=”3.22″ da_disable_devices=”off|off|off” da_is_popup=”off” da_exit_intent=”off” da_has_close=”on” da_alt_close=”off” da_dark_close=”off” da_not_modal=”on” da_is_singular=”off” da_with_loader=”off” da_has_shadow=”on”][et_pb_row _builder_version=”3.25″][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”3.25″ custom_padding=”|||” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_text admin_label=”Stories of change” _builder_version=”3.27.4″]<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_blog fullwidth=”off” posts_number=”3″ include_categories=”18″ show_author=”off” show_date=”off” show_categories=”off” show_pagination=”off” use_overlay=”on” hover_overlay_color=”rgba(30,46,17,0.3)” admin_label=”Blog Excerpts” _builder_version=”4.9.2″ header_font_size=”20px” header_line_height=”28px” pagination_font_size_tablet=”51″ pagination_line_height_tablet=”2″][\/et_pb_blog][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Read More<\/a><\/p>\n Read More<\/a>","protected":false},"author":11,"featured_media":0,"parent":14,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_et_pb_use_builder":"on","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-8213","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n<\/h4>\n
