We Have the Power to Impact Our Future, and We’re Doing Something About It
The Cypress Chapter of the Izaak Walton League of America (IWLA) is dedicated to conserving, restoring, and promoting the sustainable use and enjoyment of our natural resources, including soil, air, woods, waters, and wildlife.
A Century of Conservation Leadership
For more than 100 years, the Izaak Walton League has championed effective practical policies, balancing conservation and sustainable use of natural resources. As each chapter across the nation has its focus, the Cypress Chapter is no different. We pride ourselves in jumping in the middle of conservation problems specific to our corner of the world and the Everglades, in particular, the liquid heart of Florida. We are doing something now about issues that will impact the future.
“My mission is to protect the Big Cypress National Preserve and everything connected to her.”
Mike Elfenbein
Executive Director
No one is safe from the effects of environmental destruction. Therefore, conservation and sustainability are everyone’s responsibility. Yet, not all are willing to do what needs to be done and help. Is that you? Or will you join our campaign and lend a hand? The burden of a future for Florida rests on all of our shoulders. Will you help?
