Conservation Leadership Corps
Giving Tuesday is quickly approaching and will occur the Tuesday after Thanksgiving on November 30th.

For #GivingTuesday this year, CFM is again supporting the future of conservation. We are raising funds for the Conservation Leadership Corps (CLC). Celebrating its 20th anniversary next year, CLC is dedicated to developing the next generation of conservation leaders. The program focuses on building up high school and college students by teaching them the skills necessary to become conservation-minded professionals. Participants attend leadership training and events throughout the year that include: Annual Convention, Conservation Day at the Capitol, service projects, and CLC Fall Workshop. Learn about CLC by clicking here, and by watching the video near the bottom of this page.

When you reach the CFM donation page, please select "Giving Tuesday," in the dropdown menu to support CLC this Giving Tuesday. You don't have to wait to support tomorrow's conservation leaders, donate today!

"CLC has helped me make personal connections with professionals and students within the field of conservation, and provided me with the tools and confidence to stand up for what I value most."
