Portage County Wildlife Fund Scholarship
The Portage County Wildlife Fund (PCWF) was established to encourage the conservation and development of wildlife habitat in Portage County. In addition to providing scholarships in the College of Natural Resources, PCWF works closely with CNR student organizations on many different projects. Using proceeds from an annual fundraising banquet, they have supported the planting of wild rice and wild celery in the Stevens Point Flowage of the Wisconsin River, building and erecting wood duck nesting boxes and providing nesting platforms for eagles and ospreys. They were also instrumental in re-introducing wild turkeys into Portage County and help support research projects.
