The Most Important Event in Washington, D.C. for U.S. Leadership in International Conservation
Our Galas bring together a diverse group of liberals and conservatives, Republicans and Democrats, corporations and NGOs, foreign dignitaries and American celebrities, volunteers and professionals in a common cause to "raise awareness and political support for U.S. and international leadership in habitat and biodiversity conservation and overall good stewardship of natural resources."
Since 2006, ICCF has hosted a series of Galas, growing in popularity year after year to become the most important gatherings of conservationists from the corporate, NGO, and government communities to promote U.S. leadership in the sound management of the world's natural resources.
