Land Acquisition Funds for Habitat Preservationhttp://www.nfwf. org/programs/ acresforamerica/ rfp.cfmAcres for America, a partnership between Wal-Mart Stores and the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation, was established to provide funding for projects that conserve important habitat for fish, wildlife, and plants through acquisition of interest in real property. The goal of the program is to offset the footprint of Wal-Mart’s domestic facilities on at least an acre by acre basis through conservation of critical habitats. Preference will be given to acquisitions that are part of published conservation plans (North American Waterfowl Management Plan, Partners in Flight, etc.), State Wildlife Action Plans, or Endangered Species Act Recovery Plans. The annual pre-proposal deadlines are April 1 and September 1. Visit the website listed above for program details and application guidelines.
