My Nonprofit Reviews

Defenders of Wildlife has greatly expanded their activism on behalf of endangered species and conservation of secure native habitats over the last 10 - 15 years (if you don't have a place to live and food to eat, you don't survive - bottom line). This has been accomplished by strengthening their staff, working in the courts, testifying in Congress, and building grass roots support for a variety of species. Thus, they have become even more effective in fulfilling their goals at the national, regional and local levels. I recently attended a social event hosted by Defenders and had the chance to interact with their knowledgeable, helpful and energetic staff. The event was well organized and well attended. Their solicitation of support is low key and not pushy. I rate Defenders highly and encourage others to consider supporting them at least on an annual basis.
