GUNNISON WILDLIFE ASSOCIATION
The Gunnison Wildlife Association is committed to protecting and enhancing the health and sustainability of wildlife and public lands in the Gunnison Basin.
About GUNNISON WILDLIFE ASSOCIATION
Gunnison Wildlife Association (GWA) is a local conservation nonprofit focused on stewardship, advocacy, habitat restoration, and public education in the Gunnison Basin. It works with land managers, community volunteers, and partner organizations to reduce human impacts on native wildlife and to improve habitat resilience.
Public charity registries and state records indicate GWA is organized as a federally tax-exempt organization (recognized as a 501(c)(3) organization in 2022). In recent years the group has run volunteer habitat-restoration events, educational field trips, public-comment campaigns on wildlife management, and fundraising campaigns such as an annual photo contest and fall fundraising events.
