Program accomplishments

• WE ARE RAISING AWARENESS OF THE CRITICAL ROLE WILDLIFE CORRIDORS PLAY IN MAINTINING THE BIODIVERSITY OF ECOSYSTEMS BY ADVOCATING FOR THE PRESERVATION OF THE VITAL HABITATS THROUGH COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT, EDUCATION, AND CONSERVATION INITIATIVES. AS EXAMPLES, THIS YEAR WE HOSTED A RUN AT THE REFUGE WHICH DREW IN ABOUT 200 RUNNERS AND 30 WALKERS. WE OPERATED OUR NATURE STORE WHERE OUR VOLUNTEERS CAN ANSWER THE PUBLICS QUESTIONS. WE SEND OUT A QUARTERLY NEWLETTER THAT INCLUDES A REPORT ON THE REFUGE, INFORMATION ON CONSERVATION ISSUES, AND NATURE RELATED ARTICLES. WE STARTED A MEMBERSHIP PROGRAM THIS YEAR TO RAISE AWARENESS AND INVOLVE MORE PEOPLE IN OUR EFFORTS.

• TO CREATE HEALTHY NATIVE HABITATS, WE ACTIVELY PARTICIPATE IN A REVEGETATION PROGRAM WHICH PLANTS BETWEEN 50,000 AND 250,000 SEEDLINGS A YEAR. IN ADDITION, WE ARE A PARTNER ORGANIZATION AND PARTICIPATED IN RIO REFORESTATION, A YEARLY PLANTING EVENT THAT DRAWS UP TO TWELVE HUNDRED PARTICIPANTS A YEAR.

• WHEN POSSIBLE, WE PURCHASE SMALL TRACTS OF LAND FOR SUBSEQUENT INCORPORATION INTO THE LOWER RIO GRANDE VALLEY NATIONAL WILDLIFE REFUGE. LAST YEAR, WE MADE AN INVESTMENT IN A 220 ACRE PIECE OF LAND WITH OUR SISTER REFUGE, THE LAGUNA ATASOCSA NATIONAL WILDLIFE REFUGE, TO BE ADDED TO THEIR REFUGE SYSTEM. WE STILL HAVE AN INVESTMENT IN THIS PIECE OF LAND. WE RECEIVED A PIECE OF LAND AS A DONATION THIS YEAR. WE HAVE PAID TO HAVE THE LAND TRANSFERED TO OUR NAME AND PAID MINOR EXPENSES FOR UPKEEP.
