Community Impact –
The Greater Dayton Conservation Fund

The Greater Dayton Conservation Fund supports strategic and vital initiatives to sustain our natural landscapes for generations to come.

In 2006, a group of dedicated citizens, who recognized the importance of preserving our region’s natural resources, established The Greater Dayton Conservation Fund through The Dayton Foundation. This fund supports work that encourages collaboration and regional land conservation, as well as protects the integrity of our community’s natural environment. Specifically, grants are awarded to nonprofit organizations that work to safeguard our natural environment through education, restoration, scientific research and more.

The Advisory Committee of The Greater Dayton Conservation Fund accepts applications for its revolving grant funding cycle. For more information, contact lbaker@daytonfoundation.org.

The Greater Dayton Conservation Fund was formed by The Dayton Foundation to assure that conservation-minded donors have options to support our natural environment - and to provide a source of funding for the many local charitable organizations focused on conservation and environmental stewardship.
