Environmental Advisory Council (EAC)

Every September, the Everglades Foundation accepts applications for matching grant proposals and annually contributes close to $1.5 million towards restoration efforts by awarding programming funds to environmental organizations working directly on Everglades issues.

Environmental organizations that have received Foundation grants and environmental organizations that partner with the Foundation on strategic programming are invited to serve on the Foundation's Environmental Advisory Council.  From Audubon to World Wildlife Fund, these organizations form the structure of the Everglades Foundation's Environmental Advisory Council.

And whether their individual missions and respective staff specialize in water, fish, parks, or land conservation—together we provide the type of collaborative strategizing that is critical to the overall success of a comprehensive restoration.
