Wetlands are disappearing faster than almost any other ecosystem in the United States. Yet these vital habitats filter water, store carbon, prevent floods, and sustain wildlife. And while state wildlife systems routinely underfund their protection, we're ready to change that.

Help us raise awareness and action for wetlands with our Marsh Madness Bracket Challenge!

YOU choose a Wetland Champion from eight iconic species. Three fast rounds over two weeks. One winner.

But this isn’t just a bracket. Every gift helps fund Wildlife for All’s work to:

Hold state wildlife agencies accountable
Fight for science-informed conservation
Push for funding that protects entire ecosystems, not just game species

How Voting Works:

Each matchup features two species.
Every dollar donated equals one vote.
When you donate, select the species you’re backing.
The species with the most dollars raised in each matchup advances.

✔ Choose your species from our head-to-head challenges.
✔ Make a gift of any amount to show your support for the species you want to advance.
✔ Watch the bracket unfold to see who wins! The species who raises the most moves on.

$10 — Wildcard
$25 — Power Vote
$50 — Double Down
$100 — Champion Circle

Every donation counts. Every dollar defends wetlands. And every dollar = one vote.

Our goal: $5,000 in 14 days. Let’s prove wetlands have power behind them.
