Who We Are

National Council

The National Council of World Wildlife Fund (WWF) was established by a Board amendment to the Bylaws on September 18, 1984, as an advisory group to the Board. The Council is composed of distinguished scientific, business, political, and philanthropic leaders from across the country. Council members form a national network to promote WWF’s conservation programs and help raise funds.
