Ducks Unlimited is the world’s leader in wetlands and waterfowl conservation. Our mission: is habitat conservation.  Ducks Unlimited conserves, restores, and manages wetlands and associated habitats for North American’s waterfowls. These habitats also benefit other wildlife and people. Wetlands and other habitats are being degraded and destroyed across the continent. Ducks Unlimited has a vision to reverse this trend. DU will achieve our vision through diverse public and private partnerships to address the full range of factors that continue to erode waterfowl habitat across North America.

Ducks Unlimited is a grassroots, volunteer-based organization. Its members are conservationists and outdoor enthusiasts who live primarily throughout the United States, Canada and Mexico. DU volunteers host more than 4,000 grassroots fundraising events annually, such as member and sponsor banquets, shooting and fishing tournaments, and golf outings.
