Wild Tomorrow Fund
“We have been blown away by Climate Ride and are so very excited about our partnership and all of their hard work to support environmental causes like ours.”

Co-founder & COO
Mission
We face the extinction of one million species in our lifetimes. But there is still hope. The solution to the extinction crisis lies in the expansion of natural habitats in threatened wild places. We must enlarge and protect the spaces devoted to the natural world in order to save the amazing variety of life on our planet – called biodiversity.
Total Climate Ride Grant: $387,320
