Hi, my name is Janine and I am a Conservation Ambassador. I want to Pay It Forward to the next generation of conservation leaders!
MY FUNDRAISING GOAL - $300
GOAL UPDATE: $25 OF $300 RAISED !
MY WLA STORY + WHY I WANT TO PAY IT FORWARD
I stalked Wildlife Leadership Academy for years before I got involved, mostly hoping my kids would apply. When I got an opportunity to apply to be an Adult Mentor, I figured if they never went, I still could! I love the Academy because it is an inclusive space for young people who want to learn about the game species of Pennsylvania, how their habitats are managed, and how they can be change agents in their communities to improve habitat and wildlife management practices.
I took a week from my summer to volunteer with the Academy and mentor students and I am hoping friends and family will honor my commitment and donate towards my fundraising goal! The future of Pennsylvania’s wildlife depends on our collective dedication.
Thank you for helping me in Paying it Forward! ~ Janine
We met with a Game Warden who was able to share what they do professionally on a daily basis. Game Wardens are an important link in protecting PA’s natural resources.
Students learned to operate a radio telemetry device for tracking collared wildlife. It was difficult and not as precise as you would think, but my group was successful in locating their collar.
I attended the Gobblers camp and they mostly work on streams for the aquatic academies (Brookies and Bass) but stream restoration is vital to all wildlife in PA.
Students participated in a team-building exercise every day.
Academy participants sometimes do real-life conservation activities, both during camp and in their communities after camp, as part of their outreach. This group is creating turtle basking platforms.
