What you make possible

High-impact philanthropy

Bold investment. Big impact.

All of us depend on nature—and our planet—for survival. This is our shared home. And right now, every gain towards a more sustainable future matters.

As the world’s leading conservation network, WWF is committed to saving the places on the planet that are most essential for all life on Earth. In those places, we join together to save species from extinction, conserve natural resources with Indigenous people and local communities, advance policies that protect nature, and lead innovations that are transforming conservation for good. We all need nature, and nature needs us.

Your impact in action

When you donate, you play a direct role in tackling conservation’s biggest challenges and building collaborative solutions that work for nature and people. In 2025, here are just a few of the wins donor support made possible:

  • Achieved 0% poaching of sea turtles

    on nesting beaches in Buru Island in Indonesia, down from 63% in 2017 

  • Restored 10,000+ acres of grassland

    working with 116 ranch partners in the Great Plains, which span across Indigenous Nations, Canada, the United States, and Mexico

  • Engaged 30,000 students

    across 16 school districts in the United States through WWF’s Food Waste Warriors program
