The Theodore Roosevelt Conservation Partnership's 11th Annual Capital Conservation Awards Dinner (CCAD) will be held Wednesday, May 1, 2019, at the Andrew W. Mellon Auditorium in Washington, D.C.

The TRCP's CCAD is an annual awards gala and fundraising event that brings together more than 450 conservationists, elected officials, policymakers, and business leaders who share a commitment to our hunting and fishing traditions. The night's main focus is honoring three individuals whose work has made a lasting difference for conservation.

It is a chance to celebrate that conservation is, and always has been, bipartisan and uniquely American.

The event also features exciting live and silent auctions and a raffle with the opportunity to take home some of the best in hunting and fishing trips and gear. The CCAD is one of Washington's best-attended conservation celebrations, regularly attracting more than 30 members of Congress, as well as senior Administration officials.

This is a ticketed event, and limited seating is available. Purchase individual tickets at the top of this page or contact Michelle Wood at [email protected] for more information. Click here if you would like to learn more about TRCP.

The Coca-Cola Company is the world's largest beverage company. When it comes to protecting the planet, water is a top priority. Clean, accessible water is essential to the health of communities. It's also critical to the ecosystem and indispensable for economic prosperity.

Our long-term goal with water is as simple as it is ambitious: we want to return to nature an amount of water equal to what is used in our beverages and in their production. We recently announced that we met this goal four years early! One way we do this is by supporting watershed projects that conserve and replenish water in local communities. We support 100 such projects across North America. Through partnerships with World Wildlife Fund, The Nature Conservancy, the U.S Forest Service and local groups, we are helping to revitalize and restore some of our country's most critical freshwater river basins and streams.

In 2016, we announced that our partnership with the USDA, U.S. Forest Service and National Forest Foundation achieved a 1 billion liter replenishment milestone. This goal was achieved through 7 projects at 13 watersheds that provide drinking water to 60+ million Americans. Looking forward, this partnership aims to replenish another billion liters in national forestland watersheds through 2018.

Since our creation by Congress in 1984, the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation has become one of the world's largest conservation grant-makers. We work with both the public and private sectors to protect and restore our nation's fish, wildlife, plants and habitats.

NFWF supports conservation efforts in all 50 states and U.S. territories. Our projects - more than 15,000 since our founding - are rigorously evaluated and awarded to some of the nation's largest environmental organizations, as well as some of the smallest. We neither advocate nor litigate. Instead, NFWF focuses on bringing all parties to the table, getting results, and building a better future for our world. Financial commitments to our conservation mission since our founding now top $3.5 billion.

Since 1955, the George B. Storer Foundation has provided millions of dollars in grants to help improve ecosystems, economies, and communities around the United States.

Most recently, the Foundation has dedicated its work to promoting an ecologically rich and economically prosperous future by investing in high quality outdoor early childhood education, encouraging civic engagement to protect America's public lands and waters, investing in Wyoming's landscapes and communities, and improving how rural electric cooperatives can better meet the economic needs of their communities while responding to the climate crisis. The Foundation's key initiatives include efforts to research, map and protect critical migration corridors for Wyoming's ungulate populations, the restoration of cutthroat trout, a keystone species in Yellowstone National Park, and the development and implementation of Wyoming's sage grouse conservation plan and similar efforts throughout western states.
