Indiana Wildlife Federation

As the nonprofit, grass-roots affiliate of the National Wildlife Federation, IWF works to promote the wise use of our renewable resources through educational programs like Certified Sustainable Trails and the Backyard Wildlife Habitat. Our organization works with state agencies and other organizations to monitor Indiana's wildlife and habitats, including Hoosier lakes and rivers, air, and soil.

The Indiana Wildlife Federation's dedicated staff works daily to provide Hoosiers with the education and resources they need to support commonsense conservation. Through workshops, habitat rehabilitation, government advocacy, and our sustainability programs, these individuals are helping to lead Indiana's conservation efforts.

We are proud to offer two scholarship opportunities for students interested in conservation or environmental education. The Holt Scholarship is a $1000 scholarship awarded to a student who is majoring or minoring in a field related to resource conservation or environmental education.

The Holt BIPOC Scholarship is a $1000 scholarship awarded to a student who is majoring or minoring in a field related to resource conservation or environmental education and identifies as Black, Indigenous, and/or a person of color.What is the most pressing environmental or natural resource issue currently affecting indiana wildlife?

Our team is a dynamic group of individuals who work together to educate our state about the importance of wildlife conservation. At this time, we do not have any open staff positions. However, we encourage you to join us in our mission to protect Hoosier wildlife as a volunteer.

Students interested in gaining experience in the field of conservation are encouraged to apply for one of three student internships honoring the work and commitment of Gary D. Doxtater, an imperative conservationist in Indiana's history.The IWF habitat programs intern works closely with the sustainable campus, sustainable trails, and backyard habitat programs.
