The 2022 Contra Costa County Ducks Unlimited Fundraising Dinner was attended by more than 100 local waterfowlers who contributed needed funds to DU’s conservation programs.
The Ducks Unlimited Mission
Waterfowl conservation is facing important challenges as wetlands and other habitats are being degraded and destroyed across the continent. DU has a vision to reverse this trend.
The Ducks Unlimited mission is to conserve, restore and manage wetlands and associated habitats for North American waterfowl. They recognize that these same habitats also benefit other wildlife and people.
Ducks Unlimited’s conservation programs have always had a strong biological foundation. That science and research tradition continues today with hundreds of studies to address the habitat needs of waterfowl.
