The Wildlife Friendly Enterprise Network thanks its generous sponsors.
"The Alex C. Walker Educational and Charitable Foundation has filled a unique niche among grant-giving institutions in that it addresses issues related to the causes of market imbalances, the exploration of free market solutions, protection of the free enterprise system, and the dissemination of such information. The trust operates as a family foundation with Dr. Thomas Walker, Jr. and Barrett P. Walker serving as family trustees and PNC Bank serving as the corporate trustee."
"The Evjue Foundation, Inc. is the charitable arm of The Capital Times, a progressive voice for news, information and opinion for more than 90 years. William T. Evjue founded the paper in 1917 to ensure that those without the power of wealth and station would have a champion in the never-ending quest for clean and just government."
"The Land Tenure Center (LTC) works to improve environmental sustainability in developing countries, where extraordinary biological and cultural diversity often coincides with acute poverty. Environmental sustainability is vital for the poor, who depend heavily on natural resources and ecosystem services and are likely to suffer disproportionately from disease and hardship when the environment is degraded. Linking poverty alleviation to environmental conservation is complex and requires good governance and sound institutions. For this reason, LTC stresses local collaboration and a multi-disciplinary approach to research and training."
Leonard X. Bosack & Bette M. Kruger Foundation
"The Bosack & Kruger Foundation funds projects or organizations promoting animal welfare, as well as projects of unusually high technical, scientific or literary merit. Preferring to act as the project or funding initiator, the Foundation discourages unsolicited grant applications in order to conserve effort and expense on the part of requesting organizations."
U.S. Agency for International Development
"USAID plays a vital role in promoting U.S. national security, foreign policy, and the War on Terrorism. It does so by addressing poverty fueled by lack of economic opportunity, one of the root causes of violence today. As stated in the President’s National Security Strategy, USAID’s work in development joins diplomacy and defense as one of three key pieces of the nation’s foreign policy apparatus. USAID promotes peace and stability by fostering economic growth, protecting human health, providing emergency humanitarian assistance, and enhancing democracy in developing countries. These efforts to improve the lives of millions of people worldwide represent U.S. values and advance U.S. interests for peace and prosperity."
