Savingspecies
Category: Environment
DescriptionThe Organization helps local conservation groups purchase land for conservation and habitat restoration. It sometimes considers projects for habitat restoration on land that’s within an existing protected area. The Organization provides grants for the purchase and restoration of land that connects existing habitat fragments, or that prevents isolation of habitat that would otherwise continue due to habitat loss. Proposed projects should preserve or restore an area of high biodiversity and/or habitat for critically endangered species; be administered by local or host-country nongovernmental organizations and staff; include proactive measures to reclaim and restore degraded land or preserve existing habitat; foster connectivity between forests and other habitats and existing protected areas; and/or involve local people to ensure accrual of benefits to them. Letters of interest are accepted on a rolling basis. Additional information can be found on the Web site.
