Mission and programs · 2024

Mission

To champion a collaborative campaign to permanently connect, protect and restore the Florida Wildlife Corridor, a statewide network of lands and waters that supports wildlife and people. We combine conservation science with compelling imagery and rich storytelling to heighten the visibility of the Florida Wildlife Corridor and inspire its protection through education and engagement. We bring people together to advocate for the protection of the missing links needed to connect conservation lands in our corridor.

Activities or mission (Part I)

To champion a collaborative campaign to permanently connect, protect and restore the Florida Wildlife Corridor.

  • The Florida Wildlife Corridor Program helps to raise awareness for the mission by organizing events, murals, expeditions, film-screenings, gallery exhibits and media to advocate for land protection and wildlife crossings within the Florida Wildlife Corridor. We partner with organizations and individuals nearly as diverse as the wildlife we aim to protect. Using a science-based approach, on the ground knowledge of the Corridor, and the support of thousands of followers through the state and nation, we work to identify and elevate the post most pressing threats and opportunities facing the Corridor. Since The Florida Wildlife Corridor Act passed (in 2021), officially designating the 18-million acre geographic area, the Florida Wildlife Corridor Program, our main program, is dedicated to protecting and restoring the designated area, which still faces development threats.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us.
