Long Island Sound Funders Collaborative
The mission of the Long Island Sound Funders Collaborative is to restore the Sound based on the Comprehensive Conservation Management Plan for Long Island Sound. We see the benefits of collaboration because issues Long Island Sound faces are not solved alone. One collaboration is the Long Island Sound Stewardship Fund, which offers grants aligned with NFWF’s Long Island Sound Futures Fund.
The Long Island Sound Funders Collaborative and NFWF have been working together since 2011 in partnership with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, and guided by the shared priorities and geography of the Comprehensive Conservation Management Plan for Long Island Sound. To date, this partnership has provided over $1 million to secure the health of the Sound now and into the future. We support and collaborate with NFWF’s efforts to help sustain a Sound full of clean waters, healthy watersheds, thriving habitats and abundant wildlife.
