Environmental Defenders

The Environmental Defenders program recognizes and engages the Everglades Law Center’s most committed supporters. Defenders provide crucial unrestricted funding that empowers ELC to swiftly address emerging environmental challenges in South Florida. This support ensures that ELC can continue advocating, litigating, and negotiating to protect the region’s ecosystems and communities, including endangered species, wetlands, and waterways, while building climate resilience. Members are at the forefront of efforts to safeguard the future of South Florida, and their contributions are instrumental in driving meaningful environmental change.
