We invite you to enjoy our 2024 annual report, featuring photos that bring you close to the action and maps that give you a bird’s eye view of where work took place. See youth crews learning and working or hear about their experiences in their own words. Learn how restoration helps improve the quality of life for humans and wildlife and be inspired by personal stories.

Thank you to our wonderful donors. Through your generosity, the Foundation was able to provide much-needed support for projects at the Forest Preserves of Cook County that nurture the next generation of environmental leaders, enrich the conservation field, and restore our treasured Preserves.

This is what you did! Enjoy.
