The WILD Foundation


The WILD Foundation is a global community of change-makers fighting for wilderness everywhere. We believe that to counter the root cause of the destruction of wilderness, we must address the values and policies that determine acceptable behavior and propel conservation forward. We partner with Indigenous stewards to create community-level change and empower our planet’s most effective conservationists. We have several on the ground projects in addition to policy and advocacy work, including the Mali Elephant Project and working with the Yawanawa in the Western Amazon.

Join us in fighting for wilderness and conserving our wild nature!

LandPaths mission is to foster a love of the land in Sonoma County. We engage more than 8,000 community members each year with our (3) core initiatives – Rooting Youth in Nature, Branching Out Conservation for Everyone, and Growing Community with Nature. These complimentary initiatives get youth from marginalized communities outside for recreation and science based nature exploration, connect families to the natural world through our Community Gardens and Vamos Afuera program, and engage volunteers in stewarding the land we manage to benefit the land while nourishing our volunteers.
