$12,000,000 Capital Campaign

“Pennsylvania Wildlife Needs YOU!”

The purpose of the $12,000,000 Campaign will be to raise funds to build an Education and Research Center to teach children and adults about Pennsylvania's diverse wildlife species and to house the Pennsylvania Game Commission's wildlife research staff. The state of the art Education Center features a theatre, gift shop, classrooms and interactive laboratories and exhibits, while the Research Center will feature offices, library and laboratory space. Sports competition ranges will be incorporated into the building's lower level. The Wildlife Education and Research Center will stimulate continuous learning about the uniqueness of Pennsylvania's birds and mammals. It will ensure that Pennsylvania is in the vanguard of wildlife conservation for many generations. An Endowment Fund will be enhanced to ensure the perpetuity of the Foundation.
