    About American Songbird Management and Recovery

    American Songbird Management and Recovery concentrates almost all of its giving on land- and watershed-conservation in northern Michigan, making very large, targeted gifts to a small number of regional conservation organizations. Grants are focused on protecting habitat, acquiring or preserving land, and supporting landscape-scale stewardship rather than broad philanthropic diversification. The foundation appears to prioritize durable ecological outcomes in the Upper Peninsula/Great Lakes watershed area.

    Focus Areas

    Land acquisition and permanent conservation in northern Michigan (Upper Peninsula)Watershed protection and aquatic ecosystem restoration in the Great Lakes regionSupport for regional land trusts and conservation nonprofits focused on forest and songbird habitat

    Who They Fund

    Boreal-hardwood transition forest ecosystemsnative wildlife species dependent on that forest

    Giving Approach

    Highly concentrated, large-dollar grants to a very small set of repeat grantees (multi-grant relationships), focused on project-specific land conservation and watershed work rather than many small awards.
