About us
The Albuquerque Wildlife Federation (AWF) is an all-volunteer nonprofit organization founded by Aldo Leopold in 1914 and dedicated to conserving and restoring wildlife and its habitat across New Mexico.
AWF partners with other nonprofit organizations and public land management agencies to organize volunteer ecological restoration projects that enhance the health and resilience of our public lands. We work to increase public understanding, appreciation, and enjoyment of New Mexico’s wildlife and wild lands, and to educate our community about how to tend and protect the ecosystems that sustain us.
Our goal is to create lasting impact by building community around the work of habitat restoration.
