Frequently Asked Questions

Is a Future Conservationists Initiative program really no cost to the school?

Yes! FCI programs happen in classrooms at no cost to local schools. We don’t want budgets to get in the way of children learning about the nature world and conservation. Our FCI programs are funded completely through donations to the Backcountry Conservation & Education Fund 501c3 nonprofit.
