A historic year for Ducks Unlimited! 🦆 Read the full story at the link below!
Fiscal Year 2026 was one for the record books, as Ducks Unlimited reached new milestones in wetlands and waterfowl conservation across North America. DU’s seven-year Conservation for a Continent campaign concluded with an incredible $4.06 billion raised, surpassing its ambitious fundraising goal and setting a new standard for conservation.
The momentum didn’t stop there. DU generated $903.8 million in revenue, with 93% of expenditures going directly toward habitat delivery and conservation education. More than 33,000 dedicated volunteers hosted over 6,000 events, generating $108 million in event income, while major gift commitments exceeded $105 million.
On the landscape, DU delivered more than 1 million acres of conservation for the third consecutive year, bringing its all-time total to more than 20 million acres restored or protected. Landmark conservation easements, including 4,400 acres at Clarendon Farms in South Carolina and more than 630 acres at Reydell Farm in Arkansas, will safeguard critical habitat for generations to come.
Behind these remarkable achievements are DU’s 750,000 members and contributors, along with countless volunteers, donors, and conservation partners who make this mission possible. Together, we’re building a lasting legacy for wetlands, waterfowl, and the future of conservation.
Thank you for making FY26 a year to remember!
