Notable achievements

Endowment and Beneficial Interest

The Foundation holds a multi‑hundred‑thousand to multi‑million dollar beneficial interest/endowment that provides investment income and appropriations to ABNC for operations, stewardship and capital needs; net asset growth was evident in filings through 2022–2024 as the fund increased to roughly $1.6–$2.0 million during that period.

Supported Major Land Expansion (2024)

Foundation appropriations and private philanthropy supported ABNC’s large 2024 expansion of preserve acreage (bringing the preserve to roughly 3,900+ acres), enabling protection of additional coastal prairie, marsh and wetland forest habitats critical for flood mitigation and biodiversity.

Sustained Education & Stewardship Funding

Foundation earnings and appropriations have underwritten ABNC’s year‑round educational programs and stewardship projects—supporting school field trips, summer camps and restoration work that reach thousands of students and volunteers annually and fund prairie and marsh restoration, prescribed fire, and native plant propagation.
