      <MissionDescription>THE WILDERNESS SOCIETY IS THE LEADING AMERICAN CONSERVATION ORGANIZATION WORKING TO PROTECT WILD PLACES WITHIN OUR NATION'S PUBLIC LANDS THE 618 MILLION ACRES COLLECTIVELY OWNED BY THE AMERICAN PEOPLE AND MANAGED BY OUR GOVERNMENT. FROM WELL-KNOWN ICONS TO HIDDEN GEMS, THESE WILDLANDS PROVIDE US ALL WITH CLEAN AIR AND WATER; ABUNDANT WILDLIFE; HAVENS FOR RECREATION, LEARNING, AND SOLITUDE; AND A FOUNDATION FOR A HEALTHY PLANET. THEY ARE ALSO IMPORTANT SOURCES OF RENEWABLE ENERGY AND VITAL NATURAL RESOURCES WHICH MUST BE MANAGED WISELY.SINCE ITS FOUNDING IN 1935, THE WILDERNESS SOCIETY HAS LED THE EFFORT TO PERMANENTLY PROTECT AS WILDERNESS 110 MILLION ACRES IN 44 STATES, FROM RICH HARDWOOD FORESTS IN THE EAST, STUNNING DESERTS IN THE SOUTHWEST, AND SNOWCAPPED PEAKS IN THE ROCKIES TO OLD-GROWTH FORESTS IN THE PACIFIC NORTHWEST AND TUNDRA IN ALASKA.

      <Description>THE WILDERNESS SOCIETY HAS A DEEP HISTORY OF PROTECTING OUR WILDEST PUBLIC LANDS; WE'VE LED ON NEARLY EVERY MAJOR PUBLIC LANDS DECISION SINCE 1935, FROM THE 1964 WILDERNESS ACT TO THE PASSAGE OF THE OMNIBUS PUBLIC LANDS BILL OF 2009. IN FISCAL YEAR 2013 WE MADE IMPORTANT PROGRESS ON OUR THREE MAJOR PRIORITIES: PROTECTING WILDLANDS, GUIDING ENERGY DEVELOPMENT IN A WAY THAT BOTH PROTECTS OUR WILDEST PLACES AND SUPPORTS RENEWABLE ENERGY, AND STRENGTHENING PUBLIC SUPPORT FOR PROTECTING AMERICA'S REMARKABLE PUBLIC LANDS.WE HAD CONSERVATION VICTORIES FROM ALASKA TO NEW MEXICO, WHERE WE WON NEW PROTECTION FOR MILLIONS OF ACRES OF SPECTACULAR SCENERY, RICH WILDLIFE HABITAT AND LARGE LANDSCAPES THAT NOW HAVE A BETTER CHANCE OF BEING RESILIENT TO CLIMATE CHANGE. WITH THE OBAMA ADMINISTRATION'S DECISION TO PROTECT 11 MILLION ACRES OF SPECIAL AREAS IN THE WESTERN ARCTIC'S NATIONAL PETROLEUM RESERVE-ALASKA, WE ALSO MADE CRITICAL PROGRESS TOWARD PUTTING CONSERVATION ON EQUAL GROUND WITH ENERGY DEVELOPMENT.THIS YEAR ALSO MARKED THE LAUNCH OF OUR CONSTITUENCY BUILDING CAMPAIGN TO INSPIRE MORE AMERICANS TO CARE FOR OUR WILD PLACES, AN AMBITIOUS EFFORT TO BUILD THE NEXT GENERATION OF WILDERNESS SUPPORTERS AND CHAMPIONS. BELOW ARE SOME OF OUR CONSERVATION ACCOMPLISHMENTS:- NEW NATIONAL MONUMENTS: PRESIDENT OBAMA PROTECTED FIVE NEW NATIONAL MONUMENTS IN MARCH 2013 THAT CELEBRATE THE DIVERSITY OF AMERICA'S NATURAL AND CULTURAL HERITAGE. THE WILDERNESS SOCIETY PLAYED A KEY ROLE IN THE EFFORT TO ENSURE THE DESIGNATION OF THESE MONUMENTS. THE LARGEST OF THESE DESIGNATIONS WAS THE PROTECTION OF THE RIO GRANDE DEL NORTE NATIONAL MONUMENT IN NORTHERN NEW MEXICO, WHICH INCLUDES ROUGHLY 240,000 ACRES OF PUBLIC LAND AND IS A HOME TO WILDLIFE, A RECREATION HAVEN AND A VITAL SOURCE OF WATER FOR SURROUNDING COMMUNITIES. THE PRESIDENT ALSO DESIGNATED PUBLIC LANDS IN THE BEAUTIFUL SAN JUAN ISLANDS AS A NATIONAL MONUMENT IN WASHINGTON STATE, THE HARRIET TUBMAN NATIONAL MONUMENT IN MARYLAND, THE CHARLES YOUNG BUFFALO SOLDIERS NATIONAL MONUMENT IN OHIO, AND HISTORIC SITES IN DELAWARE.- 11 MILLION ACRES PROTECTED IN THE NATIONAL PETROLEUM RESERVE-ALASKA: IN FEBRUARY THE OBAMA ADMINISTRATION PROTECTED 11 MILLION ACRES OF SPECIAL AREAS IN THE WESTERN ARCTIC'S NATIONAL PETROLEUM RESERVE-ALASKA. THAT DECISION WAS A VICTORY FOR TWS AND FOR CONSERVATION IN A UNIQUELY BEAUTIFUL PART OF THE WORLD. RESEARCH LED BY TWS HELPED THE ADMINISTRATION CHOOSE AN APPROACH THAT PROTECTS VITAL HABITAT FOR CARIBOU AND NESTING WATERFOWL WHILE STILL ALLOWING INDUSTRY ACCESS TO 72 PERCENT OF THE RESERVE'S ECONOMICALLY RECOVERABLE OIL. THIS DECISION IS ALSO A MODEL FOR LANDSCAPE-SCALE PLANNING AND FOR MOVING TOWARD PUTTING CONSERVATION ON EQUAL GROUND WITH ENERGY DEVELOPMENT. - VICTORY IN THE TEANAWAY RIVER VALLEY: TWS PLAYED A CRITICAL ROLE IN A MAJOR WILD LANDS VICTORY IN WASHINGTON STATE IN 2013. ON JUNE 30, 2013 GOVERNOR JAY INSLEE SIGNED INTO LAW A BILL THAT WILL CONSERVE THE PICTURESQUE TEANAWAY RIVER VALLEY, EAST OF SEATTLE. THIS EFFORT ACQUIRED 50,000 ACRES IN THE TEANAWAY RIVER VALLEY TO ENSURE CONSERVATION OF IMPORTANT LANDS IN THE UPPER YAKIMA RIVER BASIN THAT WILL EQUALLY BENEFIT FISH, WILDLIFE, FARMS AND FAMILIES. THIS IS THE LARGEST SINGLE LAND ACQUISITION IN WASHINGTON STATE IN THE PAST 45 YEARS, AND THIS VICTORY WOULD NOT HAVE HAPPENED WITHOUT THE INSPIRING WORK AND VISION OF TWS STAFF. - THE ARCTIC NATIONAL WILDLIFE REFUGE SAFE FOR ANOTHER YEAR: THE WILDERNESS SOCIETY PLAYED A LEADING ROLE IN THE EFFORTS TO PROTECT THE ARCTIC NATIONAL WILDLIFE REFUGE COASTAL PLAIN FROM OIL AND GAS DEVELOPMENT IN 2013 BY WORKING WITH LOCAL AND NATIONAL PARTNERS TO ENSURE THAT THREATENING CONGRESSIONAL LEGISLATION AIMING TO OPEN THE REFUGE'S COASTAL PLAIN TO OIL AND GAS DEVELOPMENT DID NOT PASS, AND FEDERAL DECISION-MAKERS REJECTED AN ALASKA STATE PERMIT REQUEST TO PURSUE SEISMIC TESTING AND MORE THAN 10 EXPLORATION WELLS IN THE COASTAL PLAIN. ADDITIONALLY, THE WILDERNESS SOCIETY CONTINUED TO URGE THE ADMINISTRATION TO INCLUDE STRONG WILDERNESS RECOMMENDATIONS FOR THE COASTAL PLAIN AND OTHER PARTS OF THE REFUGE IN ITS REVISED MANAGEMENT PLAN FOR THE ARCTIC REFUGE. - GREAT OUTDOORS AMERICA WEEK: MORE THAN 275 PEOPLE CAME TO DC IN JUNE TO PARTICIPATE IN GREAT OUTDOORS AMERICA WEEK. INVOLVING A TREMENDOUS COALITION OF VOICES, THE EVENT SUCCEEDED IN NOT ONLY ESTABLISHING A VISIBLE PRESENCE ON CAPITOL HILL TO ADVOCATE FOR PUBLIC LAND CONSERVATION, ACCESS, AND FUNDING, BUT ALSO ENGAGING A NUMBER OF SENATORS, REPRESENTATIVES, AND ADMINISTRATION OFFICIALS TO EMPOWER THEIR LEADERSHIP ON OUR ISSUES.</Description>

        <Explanation>TWS USES DIFFERENT TELEMARKETING VENDORS FOR DIFFERENT TYPES OF FUNDRAISING CAMPAIGNS. WE EXPECT GAINS FORM VENDORS WHO DO REVEWAL CALLING SOCH AS COMNET AND VENDORS WHO DO APPEALS TO EXISTING MEMBERSHIP SUCH AS HARRIS. BOTH PRODUCE SUBSTANTIAL, IMMEDIATE NET INCOME. OTHER TELEMARKETING VENDORS SUCH AS YOUR VOICE MEDIA WORK ON DIFFERENT CAMPAIGNS SUCH AS LAPSED REINSTATEMENTS AND SUSTAINER (MONTHLY GIVING) INVITES WHICH ARE, BY DESIGN, BUDGETED AT AN INITIAL NET LOSS. THEY ARE INTENDED TO REINSTATE LAPSED DONORS OR RECRUIT MONTHLY CONTRIBUTORS AND NET INCOME IN FUTURE MONTHS AFTER THE CAMPAIGNS ARE OVER. THE AMOUNT PAID TO OR RETAINED BY FUNDRAISERS REFLECTS BOTH REIMBURSEMENT FOR EXPENSES AND FEES FOR FUNDRAISING SERVICES.</Explanation>
