FSTOP FOUNDATION INC

Create positive awareness for conservation and an understanding of why this is important. The end goal is to have people understand the natural world around us and why it is important to not only conserve, but in many cases restore that world around us. If we can do this we will have created stewards who will want to continue this work for generations to come.

We use a network of remote cameras to generate high impact images and videos that allow us to create awareness through many social media channels but also allow us to create content such as videos and films which serve to educate the viewers.
We also partner with dedicated organizations such as the Florida Wildlife Corridor, Florida Wildlife Federation, and even the Florida Department of Transportation. These partnerships allow all of us to force multiply our efforts and reach a greater number of people and a higher number of goals.

We have the financial ability to purchase the necessary equipment for the remote cameras that is coupled with the technical and field knowledge to know how and where to deploy these cameras in order to generate the necessary content.
Additionally, we have the technical and creative ability to generate important content in the form of videos and films that help us tell these important stories.
The combination of being able to work the remote cameras, track the necessary wildlife for deployments, and then being able to generate powerful content is what allows us to have an impact.

Some of our proud accomplishments so far have been:
1. Our content helped the Conservation Collier initiative get over a 76% approval in the last elections of November 3rd making sure that it received the necessary public funding to continue to operate and grow the network of preserves that it protects.

2. Through our work in our Crossings and Corridors project FDOT was able to identify and approve the implementation of approximately 10 new wildlife crossings in Florida, helping to protect not only wildlife but the motorists using these roadways.

3. Through one of the cameras deployed for our Sharing the Landscape project we were able to generate the video of Rick saving his little puppy Gunner from an alligator. This video has gone viral around the world and has helped create positive awareness for the importance of thriving with wildlife.
