“A direct donation to the Endangered Resources Fund is a direct investment in the species and state natural areas that make Wisconsin so special,” Stepp said. “It’s a great gift for family and friends who love the outdoors. It’s also a gift that keeps on giving — the donation is tax deductible for the giver and the state matches the donation amount so we can do even more together to save these natural treasures.”
