The Intersection of Business and Conservation

“As vast landowners, we have a duty to preserve and enhance biodiversity for the environment and the communities we work in. WHC membership empowers our employees—from the site level to the C-suite—to engage in conservation work that is uniquely positioned to advance our positive global biodiversity impact.”

William E. Cobb, Vice President, Environmental Services & Sustainable Development, Freeport-McMoRan Inc.

We help make every act of conservation matter.

Celebrating and empowering all acts of conservation is at the core of what we do, whether it’s a simple pollinator garden or a complex wetlands restoration.

We help companies further corporate goals.

WHC conservation programs advance companies’ biodiversity, sustainability, employee engagement and community relations goals.

We help companies help nature.

Successful WHC conservation programs aligned with local, regional and national conservation priorities contribute to the collective positive outcome for the environment.

We build collaborations for conservation.

We partner with corporations, their employees, fellow conservation organizations, government agencies and community members to recognize and encourage wildlife habitat projects for conservation, education and recreation.

Our work is unparalleled.

We’re the only conservation organization to work exclusively with corporate landowners to establish, enhance, maintain and protect wildlife habitat around the world.

We’ve been doing this a long time.

Since 1988, WHC has certified more than 1,000 habitat enhancement and conservation education programs worldwide.
