Our organization was started by volunteers in 1958 and has grown to over 5,000 members, 6 offices and 5 local chapters.  We have passionate, knowledgeable staff and a host of dedicated volunteers including our state-wide governing council.  Our proven practices educate the general public, provide organizational support for volunteers working on local issues, coordinate membership activities on regional and state-wide issues, include coalition building and community support when appropriate, and provide strategic support for new Wilderness legislation. 

With an annual budget of approximately $1,000,000, our finances are sound.  We are poised to make a significant step forward in our efforts to protect Montana's wild places.  Our momentum locally, statewide and nationally is tangible.
