Pheasants Forever: The Habitat Organization
Pheasants Forever is dedicated to the conservation of pheasants, quail and other wildlife through habitat improvements, public awareness, education and land management policies and programs.
Founded in 1982 in response to the continuing decline of ring-necked pheasant populations,
Pheasants Forever is dedicated to the protection and enhancement of pheasant and other
wildlife populations through habitat improvement, public awareness and education and
land management policies that benefit private landowners and wildlife alike. In 20 years
Pheasants Forever has grown to more than 100,000 members and 600 chapters while spending more than $100 million on habitat projects encompassing more than 2.3 million acres
in North America. At the heart of Pheasants Forever is a unique grassroots system of
fundraising and project development that allows members to see the direct result of their
contribution. Virtually 100 percent of the funds raised by the chapters, exclusive of
membership fees, remain with the chapter. Those funds are expended on habitat projects,
public awareness and education programs, and land management policy initiatives, making
Pheasants Forever the most efficient conservation organization in the nation.
Pheasants Forever also realizes the benefits of a well-informed citizenry that can make
responsible decisions concerning wildlife and land management policies.
In response to this, we have developed programs and materials that promote public
conservation education and awareness. Among these are:
. Pheasants Forever Journal - a widely recognized national magazine published 5 times a year.
. The Leopold Education Project - an award-winning conservation education curriculum based
on Aldo Leopold's, A Sand County Almanac
. Ringnecks - Pheasants Forever's youth program which introduces thousands of young people
to the outdoors annually.
Pheasants Forever stands for the hunter conservationist that wants to make a difference;
by creating habitat, restoring wetlands, acquiring key critical wildlife lands for public
access, and preserving the legacy of our hunting and conservation heritage.
