By targeting key forests for conservation, OSI kept its focus on protecting drinking water, the lifeblood of countless habitats and communities.
Our efforts were memorialized with the debut of Woods to Water, a compelling short film featuring the marriage of hunt clubs and conservationists. The OSI-produced effort joins another, Saving Cherry Valley — about expansion of the Cherry Valley National Wildlife Refuge — which aired to critical acclaim at the Wild & Scenic Film Festival.
On the ground, OSI secured critical lands that filter water for Charleston, SC; protected the drinking water supply of Amsterdam, NY; and finalized several projects in the Delaware River Watershed, source of water for millions living in Trenton, Wilmington, and Philadelphia.
