About [Edit]
When the Wildlife Habitat Council was formed in 1988, the founders conceived a new and innovative concept of bringing together - conservation and business. This was the first cooperative effort between the environmental community and industry. Today, with our members and partners, we continue to share a vision to conserve and restore natural ecosystems for the benefit of humanity and the earth’s biological diversity.
The Wildlife Habitat Council [WHC] is a nonprofit, nonlobbying 501[c][3] group of corporations, conservation organizations, and individuals dedicated to restoring and enhancing wildlife habitat.
Created in 1988, WHC helps large landowners, particularly corporations, manage their unused lands in an ecologically sensitive manner for the benefit of wildlife. More than 2 million acres in 48 states, Puerto Rico, and 16 other countries are managed for wildlife through WHC-assisted projects.
Habitat projects on these lands are corporate-driven cooperative efforts between management, employees, community members, local conservation groups, and local, state and federal agencies. WHC also works to broaden understanding of wildlife values through the incorporation of environmental education, volunteer participation and community outreach programs.
Among many honors, WHC has received Presidential recognition for its unique role in building partnerships and won the Chevron-Times Mirror Magazines Conservation Award. WHC was also honored by Virginia Environmental Stewardship Awards in the nonprofit category at the for undertaking initiatives to restore and enhance natural resources.
