Business Plans
The National Fish and Wildlife Foundation business plans present clear investment strategies for our conservation programs. They outline the resources necessary to meet multi-species, landscape-scale conservation goals and create accountability by defining measurable outcomes. NFWF uses these business plans to make strategic conservation investments, and our partners use them to develop significant on-the-ground projects.
Business plans represent more than just the goals of NFWF alone. They reflect the consensus of the many federal, state, academic and organization experts consulted during plan development.
Southern Habitats
Released in August 2026, Southern Habitats is NFWF’s first NextGen Business Plan. NFWF’s NextGen Business Plans mark a new chapter in the Foundation’s leadership and advancement of science-based, outcome-focused conservation by increasing the scope, scale and timeframe of investments. This landscape was chosen first thanks to NFWF’s long history of delivering longleaf restoration across a large landscape, the innovations being charted, such as those in measuring wildlife response to aquatic freshwater habitat interventions, and the backing of a strong set of diverse funders.
