You are directly responsible for helping us raise $10,000 dollars to launch the North American Pronghorn Foundation! In only 24 days!Speaking for our 10-member Board of Directors, we can't thank you enough. It has been a truly humbling experience watching this fund grow from $0 to $10,000, knowing every single dollar was an investment in us, the mission, and of course, Pronghorn. We are inspired, grateful, and filled with a sense of responsibility to all of you.We have already begun moving the ball forward. Our 501c3 paperwork is nearly complete and will be submitted in the near future. We are establishing our purpose, values, bylaws, and building a strategic plan to provide a framework to operate within. We are also building a living document that is a state-based portfolio focused solely on a comprehensive picture of Pronghorn across the continent, including challenges, conservation opportunities, ongoing or needed efforts, and advocacy opportunities. We have a team working on a logo and are looking at website development.We are excited to bring this vision to life and put our resources on the ground to benefit Pronghorn. These next few months will be critical for us to establish a foundation for the organization to sit upon. While it may appear to be quiet on the surface, please know that we are working diligently to build an identity, set goals, and design a path to accomplish those goals. We will send out updates as we progress.We have much to do, and we are only able to do it because of your support. Much more to come...Thank you all and Goatspeed!Brock WahlChairmanNorth American Pronghorn Foundation</blockquote>
