The mission of WHC has always, proudly, been to actively involve people—mostly people from the private sector—in managing lands to provide enhanced habitat for wildlife. Since our beginnings in 1988, our presence has grown to 640 certified Wildlife at WorkSM programs and 128 Corporate Lands for LearningSM programs in 43 states, the District of Columbia, and 9 countries around the world. These programs represent measurable, sincere efforts on behalf of the private sector to contribute to public good—benefiting wildlife and community, actively harnessing skill and insight, to contribute to a greener future for all of us.
The theme of our work in 2010 was “biodiversity” – the need to understand it, and the role each of us can and must play in sustaining it. In 2011, we began our focus on the theme of “People, Partnerships and Pathways,” which builds upon our business and biodiversity focus by looking at all the ways we are connected to the natural world and exploring ways in which we can work together across public, private and governmental sectors for the preservation of species.
To our members, partners, donors and affiliated organizations, thank you for working with us. Through your dedication and leadership efforts, we will continue to promote an ecologically whole environment. Together we continue to share a vision to conserve and restore natural ecosystems for the benefit of humanity and the earth’s biological diversity.
My most sincere thanks go to the many volunteer members, governmental and non-profit partners, and staff who contributed to the creation of this report, the programs described therein, and the continuing mission and vision of the Wildlife Habitat Council in the past year.
Sincerely,
Robert Johnson President, Wildlife Habitat Council
