Anderson Mesa is one of Arizona's most beautiful landscapes, and a hugely significant habitat for wildlife. In addition to abundant populations of deer and elk, the area is populated with one of Arizona's herd of pronghorn, and an important stopover for migrating birds.
The Anderson Mesa Wetlands Restoration Project initiated by the Arizona Wildlife Federation in partnership with the National Forest Foundation, the Arizona Antelope Foundation, Arizona Game and Fish, and several other Arizona wildlife conservation groups has been underway for 2 years and is continuing. We don't want to stop until the whole project has been completed!
Last year the Arizona Wildlife Federation sent out an appeal for help with funding a portion of the project that was not covered by the grant and matching funds used for actual restoration work. We asked the public to fund signage for each of the wetland sites being restored as part of this ongoing project. The response was wonderful, and adequate for those wetlands where work was completed last year.
Part of the success of any conservation project on public lands is informing the public on how and why the project is happening and what the results will be when it is completed. With the completion of work on several more wetland sites, the need for signs is apparent and we feel we should again offer the public the opportunity to be directly involved in helping us give the finishing touch to the project work.
Please tell us that you agree this work is important by sending a tax-deductible contribution of $250, $100, $50, or $35! There are three different ways you can support the Anderson Mesa wetlands project:
Your contribution of $250 to "Adopt A Sign" will mean your sign will be placed at one of the restored wetlands on Anderson Mesa, describing the restoration work done and the reasons why. The sign will recognize you by name as contributor, or you may dedicate it in memory of a friend or family member. (see example below)
Your contribution of $125 to "Adopt A Sign" will mean you will "share" a sign that will be placed at one of the restored wetlands on Anderson Mesa, describing the restoration work done and the reasons why. The sign will recognize you by name as a contributor.
Your contribution of $75, $50, or $35 will be used jointly with other donations to place a sign at one of the restored wetlands on Anderson Mesa, describing the restoration work done and the reasons why.
