Fundraising for 2026: Help Us Grow New Art-Sci Pathways

Hello Fellow Creatures!

Today is Giving Tuesday, and we’re launching our fundraiser for 2026. Will you help us reach our $10,000 goal?

Your donation to Creature Conserve allows us to continue supporting creatives in our programs as they combine art & science to cultivate new pathways for wildlife conservation.

To donate, visit www.creatureconserve.com/donate.

Or, show your support by sharing this newsletter and following us on social media - we have several new Wildlife Spotlight posts planned for this month.

Finally, consider buying a copy of Creature Needs as a gift for yourself or a friend and help spread the word that our shared needs connect us.

Thank you for all you are doing to help wildlife,

Dr Lucy Spelman - Founder and Director

Who and What Does Your Donation Support

This year, we supported 125 scholars across our various programs and shared ideas and inspiration with an additional 57 individuals through our workshops.

Over 90% of our annual budget is distributed back to our community, so your donation will directly impact participants in our programs.

These programs include Curatorial Programs & Exhibits, Media, Mentorship Programs, Scholarships & Fellowships, and Workshops.

We raise funds so we can run more programs, grow our creative community, and cultivate new pathways for wildlife conservation.
