About WHF

The Wildlife Heritage Foundation (WHF) is a public, nonprofit land trust under section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. WHF is dedicated to preserving California's rich heritage of open spaces, agricultural land, and diverse wildlife. Founded in 2000, the directors and staff welcome land-conservation projects that protect wildlife habitat and educational programs that expand awareness of wildlife needs.

WHF is dedicated to educating the public about conservation and creating and implementing educational projects on preserve sites. We strive to work with homeowners' associations to provide information on maintaining preserved lands as well as creating awareness among homeowners of the value of open space.

WHF is committed to providing educational opportunities for students of all ages to experience and appreciate the many different types of plants and animals living on our protected open-space preserves.
