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.

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.

We partner and collaborate with other nonprofit organizations and public agencies to engage volunteers in ecological restoration projects that enhance the health and biological integrity of their public lands.

We develop and demonstrate innovative landscape restoration techniques that improve ecological resilience in the face of an ever-changing world.

We create lasting impact by building community around the work of habitat restoration.
