Alaska Wilderness League

Alaska Wilderness League is a non-profit 501 (c) (3) corporation founded in 1993 to further the protection of Alaska’s incomparable natural endowment.

Alaska Wilderness League supports legislative and administrative initiatives to protect Alaska’s lands and waters, promotes national and local recognition of Alaska’s spectacular environment through public education, strengthens grassroots activism on behalf of Alaska’s environment, and provides leadership within the environmental community on selected issues that concern Alaska.

The League’s main projects currently include fighting for the permanent protection of the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge and the sustainable future of Alaska’s Rainforest. We also serve as a resource, both in training and facilities, for Alaska-based regional environmental organizations. Alaska Wilderness League is the only Washington, D.C.-based environmental group devoted full-time to Alaskan issues.
