WYLDLIFE FOR TOMORROW ENDORSEMENTS
“Please accept this letter as a token of my strong support for the mission and work of the WYldlife Fund. In short order, your foundation has established priorities, which I believe align well with the values of Wyoming’s people. Your Board’s interest in providing funding for important conservation projects like highway crossings, habitat improvement, and education of our youth all have the potential to meaningfully contribute in a better future for Wyoming.
Additionally, your goal to team with the State to prevent aquatic invasive species from entering Wyoming shows your commitment to the health of our waterways and water users…. Please pass my appreciation along to the entire Board. Their service to our state reflects the Wyoming spirit and willingness to give back that has made us so successful in accomplishing great things for wildlife and our citizens……”
