(Wisconsin) The Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources encourages the public to give back to nature by donating to the Endangered Resources Fund on their Wisconsin income tax form.
The Endangered Resources Fund supports many of Wisconsin’s rarest plants and animal species. It has helped protect and restore some of the last remaining populations of declining species and special habitats like remnant prairies and oak savannas found in Wisconsin’s state natural areas. In other cases, the funds have helped support species for which Wisconsin may be an increasingly important stronghold.
The fund also helps the DNR care for habitats these plants and animals call home. To make a donation, look for “endangered resources” in the “donations” section on your Wisconsin income tax form.
