Protect the Everglades Now & Forever
Through The Everglades Foundation’s leadership, the world’s largest ecosystem restoration project will be a model for the rest of the globe. As we continue to aggressively push restoration to completion, we also need to pivot to protection, because the encroaching threats to the Everglades will always exist.
That’s what inspired our Foundation’s $75 million endowment campaign – to augment our annual fundraising program, ensure the long-term sustainability of America’s Everglades for future generations, and protect it in perpetuity. It’s about the importance of the ecosystem to the most populous region of the state.
Those who have generously contributed to our endowment campaign will leave a magnificent legacy – a legacy of protection – and the assurance that there will always be passionate people armed with state-of-the-art scientific data, fully dedicated to ensuring the survival and sustainability of America’s beloved Everglades for generations to come.
With deep appreciation,
Marshall Field V
Endowment Campaign Committee Chairman
