Disney Wildlife Conservation Fund Awards More Than $1.5 Million

In case you're wondering where the money you donated to the Disney Wildlife Conservation Funds goes to, here is more news on it.

The DWCF funds - which are awarded to non-profit environmental groups and universities - will go toward 97 programs in 41 countries that are focused on saving animals and habitats. Recipients were chosen from more than 260 applications reviewed by Disney scientists, veterinarians and other animal experts.


This is in addition to the few scholarly works that I have highlighted previously (here and here) that was funded out of the DWCF. So if you have contributed to this (and we have, several times), I'd say that you have made a wonderful difference.

You can find the history of every project funded when you visit www.disneywildlifefund.com on the annual grants page. I was looking to see what they had done for sea turtles recently and found it there.
