The Wheen Bee Foundation’s Impact Report for the 2023 financial year is out now. The report outlines the Wheen Bee Foundation's major programs, events and achievements, highlighting the tangible impact on bees and other pollinators. In the past 12 months, the Wheen Bee Foundation launched several new initiatives, each furthering the foundation's four main focuses of activity – research and development, awareness and education, connecting people and fundraising. These include the Centre for Bee Education, the Australian Pollinator Count, the Pollinator Photography Competition, the Discover Bees of Australia poster and the Carman’s Trees for Bees Community Tree Grants. In addition to these new initiatives, the Wheen Bee Foundation has awarded $65,000 in tree grants over the past two years, planting more than 92 hectares of pollinator friendly habitat, supported the Pollination Security CRC Core Bid Group which attracted $53 million in partnerships and partnered with Federal, State and local governments to invest $257,000 in the Powerful Pollinator Planting Guides program. All of these achievements are made possible thanks to donations from our generous supporters.

As a citizen of the Oneida Nation and someone who works in conservation policy, thank you Natural Resources Foundation of Wisconsin for your support for this amazing project! This project, with a variety of non-tribal landowners participating, has taken place on a largely former agricultural landscape. Groups like the Wisconsin Farm Bureau Federation and Dairy Business Association can appreciate how the restored wetlands capture legacy phosphorus and nitrates. Groups like Trout Unlimited can appreciate how it’s produced cool, clear water for fishing. Groups like the Association of State Floodplain Managers, Inc. (ASFPM) can appreciate the flood mitigation from these wetlands. And groups like Ducks Unlimited, like we do, value the habitat for birds. Let’s support policies that promote projects like this to solve our water problems on landscapes everywhere they’re needed!

#Flaco the owl was a special guest to so many in NYC over the last year. Sightings of him perched on buildings, fire escapes and in his special tree brought delight to so many. So when he died tragically on Friday, we wondered how we could honor him. Well, during Earth Gives Day, there is a prize fund used to incentivize nonprofits working in climate, the environment, wildlife and beyond to rally more donors and dollars to receive the prize money on top of what they raise from individuals. We are setting up the Flaco Prize Fund. 100% of what you invest will be set aside for the wildlife 501c3 participants that raise the most donations, or the rally the most donors to invest in their work rehabilitating raptors, and protecting their habitats. Earth Gives is a 501c3 nonprofit that works to boost eco philanthropy so all those nonprofits protecting our special wildlife and wild places can scale their work now and for future generations. Donate today: https://bit.ly/42Znuuo Help us reach our goal of $10,000 in honor of Flaco. 🦉 #owls #generosity #wildlife #nature #raptors #climateaction #community #heart Earth Gives Day 2024 is 25 days of giving from Sept 6-Oct 1. Nonprofits seeking to participate can register by the end of March.

📢 Our 2023 Charity Impact Report is now live, and we are chuffed. Check it out! 📊 So much work goes into this every year, we collate all of our donations, make them understandable (i.e., actual impact) and share it with the world. 🤝 Now partnering with over 30+ charities, it's awesome to see the impact we have and can continue to have, saving animals one sock at a time. 🐾 Some of my fave quotes: ""A million species are at risk of extinction this century, each unique and irreplaceable. The leading cause is habitat destruction, and the solution is to expand nature reserves. Bare Kind's donations support Rainforest Trust projects across the tropics, funding the creation of protected areas where forests and their species can continue contributing to the health of the global ecosystem" from Rainforest Trust UK "The support of corporate partners like Bare Kind is incredibly important for us as a charity. The funds they so generously donate go a long way to supporting our work and ensuring we can continue protecting rhinos, their habitats, and the species they live alongside. Thank you Bare Kind and your wonderful customers for your support in 2023, here's to achieving even more in 2024." from Helping Rhinos #CharityImpact #SustainableBusiness #AnimalConservation #CorporateResponsibility #EcoFriendly #BareKind #ImpactReport #Sustainability #Philanthropy #Conservation
