A special wildlife habitat project needs your support

As a Coverts volunteer or conservation partner, you are doing great things to help spread the message that wildlife and habitats are important resources in New Hampshire. I hope that you’ve found the Habitat Stewardship Brochures useful in your work with communities, conservation groups, neighbors and landowners (click here to view brochures).
UNH Cooperative Extension is seeking your support for the Habitat Stewardship Brochure Series to publish a new edition of this highly-successful, 12-part series.
The Habitat Stewardship Brochures are free to New Hampshire landowners and organizations, and have been very well-received. They have served as models for similar publications in Maine and New York State, and are so popular in New Hampshire that our supplies are often low. Although all UNH Cooperative Extension publications are available online, we’ve found there is still a demand for high-quality educational handouts, especially in our work with individual landowners, conservation groups, and with volunteers distributing them through our Speaking for Wildlife project. This project will allow us to print enough brochures to last for several years of free distribution (38,000+ brochures).
For the new print edition, we have already received a $3,500 grant from the New Hampshire Fish and Game Department. Our aim is to raise an additional $6,500 from NH Coverts Project volunteers, supporters and friends.
Like many organizations, we are seeking creative ways to fund our most valued programs. As the end of the year approaches, I hope you’ll consider making a tax-deductible contribution for the Habitat Stewardship Brochure project. Instructions for making an online gift (or mailing a contribution) are outlined below.
Thank you for all you do for New Hampshire’s wildlife and forests, and please feel free to contact me if you have any questions.
Sincerely,
Malin Clyde
UNH Cooperative Extension, Coordinator, NH Coverts Project
