Delco Gives is BACK!

And we need your help during this county-wide day of giving! Prizes and bonus money for this county-wide day of giving are based on the total number of *unique* donors, not total dollars raised. So, EVERY donation, regardless of size, increases our eligibility for prizes and bonus pool money!

How you can help:

• Donate via the button below

• Sign up to be a Conservancy Champion: from our Delco Gives page, select "Fundraise" and follow the instructions to setup your own personalized giving page on behalf of Radnor Conservancy

• Most important: please share our link. A quick post on social media and/or a short email or text letting folks know why you give is an amazing addition to your donation.

Last year’s incredible donors helped us win a $500 prize for most donors in an hour and secure over $1,400 of bonus pool money. With as little as $10, you can help us crush those numbers! ​

When you donate starting at 7pm on Thursday, our incredible sponsor Shreiner Tree Care is offering a dollar for dollar match, up to $500! ​​

Habitat fragmentation is a top threat to Pennsylvania’s wildlife species. From black bear and bobcat to turtles and amphibians to the billions of songbirds that migrate through the commonwealth every year, their ability to roam, forage, mate and migrate is hindered by our roads, energy infrastructure and encroaching sprawl, causing population declines and reducing their ability to adapt to a changing climate.  But the good news is we have a solution: wildlife corridors are a proven method of knitting our fractured landscapes back together.  

Stephanie Wein from PennEnvironment Research & Policy Center will present a first-of-its-kind report “Wildlife Corridors: How reconnecting habitat is protecting Pennsylvania’s native species” and share the latest on what’s happening in the commonwealth right now. This new report rounds up innovative projects from around the state that are already proving successful in reducing habitat fragmentation and provides recommendations on what next steps the state can take to reconnect Pennsylvania’s wildlife.
