Volunteer Opportunity with Florida’s Water and Land Legacy

Volunteer Opportunity with Florida’s Water and Land Legacy

Florida’s Water and Land Legacy, Inc. needs volunteers to collect signatures to put the Florida Water and Land Conservation Amendment on the November 2014 ballot.

Join a coalition of more than 4,000 individual volunteers and 300 conservation and civic organizations from across the state.

Deep funding cuts are seriously jeopardizing the great work Floridians have been doing for decades to protect what’s best about Florida: miles of beaches, beautiful parks, crystal clear springs, endless opportunities to swim, bike and fish, and an amazing diversity of plants and animals.  The Amendment will allocate less than one percent of our state budget (starting in with $625 million in 2015) to keeping our waters clean and to protecting our beaches, springs, wildlife habitat and other natural areas for future generations!

So far more than 150,000 Floridians have signed, but to get this important amendment on the November 2014 ballot, we need to gather a total of 683,149 valid signatures from Florida voters—and we need your help to reach that goal!
