The mission of Edible Schoolyard New Orleans is to teach children to make healthy connections through food and the natural world.

Founded in 2004, Fishing For Life has dedicated over a decade to serving youth, families, veterans, and communities through its fishing and outdoor programs. While the organization’s mission centers on these activities, its core values lie in fostering relationships—first and foremost with Christ, who serves as the driving force behind their work. Intentionally designed fishing and outdoor programs serve as avenues for building relationships with various groups across the state, including at-risk youth, families, veterans, and communities in Minnesota and throughout the Midwest.

The mission of Five Rivers Conservation Trust is to sustain healthy communities by connecting people to nature and conserving land forever. We envision productive farms and forests, clean water, thriving wildlife habitats, and climate-resilient landscapes throughout our region. We envision communities where people access the outdoors near home, feel connected to nature, and understand and advocate for the benefits of land conservation.
