What We Do
Our mission is to protect Southwest Florida's unique natural environment and quality of life...now and forever.
John & Carol Walter Nature Experience
at the Conservancy of Southwest Florida
The Conservancy of Southwest Florida is honored to receive a historic $25 million grant from the John & Carol Walter Family Foundation, the largest philanthropic commitment in the organization’s history.
This extraordinary grant builds upon 60 years of visionary donor support, enabling the Conservancy of Southwest Florida to transform the current Nature Center brand and offerings into the new redefined John & Carol Walter Nature Experience. The goal is to inspire and invite the community to protect our shared natural environment that uniquely preserves our way of life enjoyed today, and throughout the future.
