What we'd like to talk about
I'd like to learn more about what it takes to develop a new website (professionals I'll need to hire; costs; design best practices; etc) and see examples of effective websites for non-profits.
"Phone calls" are 1 hour, one-time calls with an organization. Learn the difference between volunteering on a Phone call and a Project here.
Our mission
Southern Appalachian Wilderness Stewards (SAWS) is a conservation non-profit dedicated to educating, cultivating, and empowering an engaged public in the stewardship of protected public lands.
What we do
SAWS' work centers on connecting people to their natural environment through direct engagement. Our programs couple education and training with hands-on work experiences. Each year, SAWS recruits a talented cohort of public lands stewards to accomplish wilderness projects developed in collaboration with our local and regional partners. This collaborative effort strategically leverages limited resources, while accomplishing critical work on our region's public lands, including: trail maintenance, rehabilitation, and construction; educating recreating visitors on wilderness relevancy, the principles of Leave No Trace, and public land regulations and safety guidelines; engaging schools and community and recreation groups on public lands conservation, stewardship, volunteerism, and wilderness; and conducting research for the US Forest Service. Our work helps to maintain and protect our region's wilderness areas, while building a new generation of conservation leaders, equipped with the tools, knowledge, and passion to be good stewards of public lands.
