Guided by the best available science, Native Fish Society advocates for the recovery of wild, native fish and promotes the stewardship of the habitats that sustain us all.

Native Animal Rescue (NAR) is a private non-profit organization dedicated to the rehabilitation of injured and orphaned wildlife. NAR's goal is the successful rehabilitation and return of wild animals back to their natural habitats. With the help of 68 volunteer wildlife rehabilitators, NAR treats over 2,900 rescued wild animals each year.We also educate people on how to coexist peacefully with our wildlife neighbors to protect animals from injury, etc.

American Humane is committed to ensuring the safety, welfare and well-being of animals. Our leadership programs are first to serve in promoting and nurturing the bonds between animals and humans.

The Ocean Cleanup is a non-profit organization developing advanced technologies to rid the world’s oceans of plastic. The Ocean Cleanup has three core approaches to tackling plastic pollution: 1) Clean legacy ocean plastic - Since 2018, The Ocean Cleanup has deployed technologies to remove plastic that has accumulated in ocean garbage patches. It's current system (System 002) has removed more than 225,000 kg of plastic from The Great Pacific Garbage Patch. 2) Turn off the tap: The Ocean Cleanup also develops and deploys Interceptor technologies that prevent plastic from reaching the oceans via rivers, focusing on 1000 rivers that are responsible for 80% of riverine plastic pollution. To date, 19 Interceptor solutions have been deployed across 8 countries. 3) Research: In the process of understanding the problem, The Ocean Cleanup has become a global leader in field research on marine plastic pollution.

American Bird Conservancy (ABC) is a 501(c)(3), not-for-profit organization whose mission is to conserve native birds and their habitats throughout the Americas.

The mission of the American Littoral Society is to promote the study and conservation of marine life and habitat, protect the coast from harm, and empower others to do the same.

ATR provides for the protection and education about all species of tortoise and turtle. We offer permanent sanctuary to abandoned tortoises. Foundlings that cannot be adopted because of ill health or because they are in danger of extinction remain in the care of American Tortoise Rescue for the remainder of their lives.

The American Eagle Foundation works to conserve and protect bald eagles and other birds of prey while educating the public through onsite exhibits, outreach programs, nest cams, and rehabilitation/breeding efforts. Its work focuses on rescue, long-term care for non-releasable raptors, habitat protection, and public education to support species recovery.

The American Wildlife Refuge provides the necessary care to rehabilitate injured raptors and release them back into the wild. For birds that are unreleasable, we provide refuge facilities and are networked with other rehabbers and organizations to place birds.We also provide educational shows and presentations to the public. Private shows and presentations for educational or youth groups are available for a nominal fee, and can be tailored to your curriculum. All proceeds from shows and any and all donations are spent entirely on the care and feeding of the birds and the maintaining of the refuge organization. No salaries or fees are paid to the volunteers.

The North American Bluebird Society is a non-profit education, conservation and research organization that promotes the recovery of bluebirds and other native cavity-nesting bird species in North America.

The American Chestnut Foundation has one simple goal: to restore the American chestnut to its native forests. Destroyed by an imported blight many consider the worst environmental disaster of the twentieth century, the American chestnut was virtually eliminated from the eastern hardwood forest between 1904 and 1940. With its loss, wildlife populations plummeted; never to return to former levels. With recent developments in genetics, there is promise that this critically important wildlife food source and timber tree will again become part of our natural heritage. To make this possibility a reality, a group of prominent scientists, in 1983, established the non-profit research-oriented American Chestnut Foundation (TACF). The Foundation's mission is simple: to restore the American chestnut as an integral part of the eastern forest ecosystem. TACF is employing traditional plant breeding techniques, backed by advanced research methods, to develop a blight resistant American chestnut tree. TACF is restoring a species - and in the process, creating a template for restoration of other tree and plant species.
