Wild Earth Allies

Wild Earth Allies' mission is to protect vital areas of our natural world for the benefit of wildlife, habitats, and people by inspiring collaborative action. Together with our field partners, we focus on locally-led actions to protect wildlife and habitats in ways that improve human well-being. We have built a solid track record of success over decades. Today, our community-based conservation efforts make a lasting, positive impact across more than 3 million acres of priority terrestrial and marine ecosystems globally. Our greatest strength is our people. We join forces with accomplished local practitioners to turn the tide of biodiversity and habitat loss in critical areas around the world. We engage in collaborative program design, implementation, and shared learning to maximize positive outcomes for wildlife, habitats, and people. Wild Earth Allies is built on important values—optimism, cultural respect, shared learning, and integrity. We select our initiatives based on the most pressing needs and genuine opportunities to catalyze change in culturally appropriate ways. Our lean structure allows donor support to quickly reach the field to benefit wildlife, habitats, and people. We have earned top nonprofit rankings from Charity Navigator for over a decade and the highest level of recognition by Candid (formerly GuideStar), the Platinum Seal of Transparency.
