There are many excellent organizations throughout the world, working hard to preserve natural habitats. Currently I support three of them with my art sales, although this list may change as I continue to learn about the conservation efforts of other groups. But for now, 100% of Orchid Art’s gross sales are divided equally among:
- OCA – Orchid Conservation Alliance
- Rainforest Trust
- NAOCC – North American Orchid Conservation Center, a division of the Smithsonian Institution
- BRIT – Botanical Research Institute of Texas
Other organizations which are doing excellent work in the areas of conservation and climate change.
- Alliance for Zero Extinction
- Center for Biological Diversity
- Centre for Sustainability
- E.O. Wilson Biodiversity Foundation
- National Wildlife Federation
- Nature Conservancy
- Inside Climate News
- International Union for Conservation of Nature
- Mongabay
- NASA
- Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC)
- Union of Concerned Scientists
- World Land Trust
- World Wildlife Federation
More may be added to this list in the future. I will post updates as they occur.
