For over 85 years, the Conservation Federation of Missouri (CFM) has led the fight to restore and conserve Missouri’s wildlife and natural resources. We have learned that when we band together, there is nothing that cannot be accomplished. Without a doubt, there have been more challenges in 2021, and we need your continued support as we grow collectively in the future.

Please help us protect Missouri’s outdoors and select "2021 End of Year Donation," at www.confedmo.org/donate and receive your CFM vacuum-sealed wine tumbler with any donation over $100.

The Conservation Federation of Missouri and the Conservation Foundation of Missouri Charitable Trust have numerous scholarships available to high school, undergraduate, and graduate students interested in pursuing a conservation-related degree.

Special scholarships are available for minorities, those with financial need, those who are family of CFM members, and we even have a scholarship for elementary and high school groups!

Applications due January 31, 2022

In 1992, hunters in Missouri began a program to share the deer they harvested with those less fortunate. They developed a statewide system now run by the Conservation Department (MDC) and the Conservation Federation of Missouri called Share The Harvest, a program that provides an easy way for hunters to donate venison to Missourians in need of red meat.

Hear more about Share the Harvest from CFM's Executive Director, Tyler Schwartze by clicking here.
