Whether you consider yourself a passionate conservationist or merely a supporter of all things wild, it is critical that every one continue to support conservation programs. However, supporting all the organizations that promote conservation and the protection of our 2nd amendment rights stretches your dollar too far to make any substantial progress. Safari Club International (SCI) is one organization that is able to make the most out of the contributions you're able to give and accomplish all the goals that are important to sportsmen and women everywhere.

At SCI, your contributions not only help in your own backyard, Texas Hill Country, they also travel the world. Funds are used on Capital Hill in the fight to protect your hunting freedoms. Asia, Europe, North America, South Africa, and South America receive support to fund projects that protect endangered species and habitat. Your help feeds the hungry, educates our youth, and delivers medical supplies to countries in need, all the while working for you to protect the wildlife and hunting heritage that will be passed on to future generations.
