 Conservation Landscape Project to Benefit Wildlife, Watersheds and People

Dear Friend of Wildlife,

Thank you for your interest in conserving natural areas and protecting wildlife. Habitat losses are the primary threat to wildlife and you can be a part of the effort to reverse this trend - you don't need to stand on the sidelines!

One of our members has stepped forward and committed $5,000 to help fund a conservation landscape project at Merrimac Farm IF we raise the same amount in designated contributions.

We’ve developed a plan to transform the back yard of the Merrimac Farm Stone House into a diverse habitat for birds, butterflies, moths, turtles, frogs and more. This project expands natural areas to reduce non-native grass, enhances vertical structure and increases the variety of food sources to welcome a wider variety of wildlife.

Through this demonstration project, we're showing how everyone can do their part to protect a little nature while Northern Virginia continues to grow.

This four-season greenscape of native plants will also create a high quality area for you and your family to watch wildlife in a public area that is always open and easy to access.

It will only happen with your help. We need to raise $10,000 to begin Phase 1. We’re nearly halfway there already!

If you act now, you can double your money. The first $5,000 in contributions will be matched dollar-for-dollar thanks to the generosity of one of our members. That is a great investment.

Can we count on you to take this opportunity to do so much good for so little? To make a gift to support this project, you can donate safely online here or send a check to PWCA, PO Box 6351, Woodbridge, VA 22195.

Please accept our thanks in advance for your generous tax deductible contribution.

Sincerely,

Charlie Grymes
