Since 1992 T.E.R.N has funded over $2,000,000 in projects to help preserve Georgia's precious Nongame and Endangered Wildlife for future generations. At the annual meeting in May, the members approved an additional $39,000 in funding for the 2025-2026 period. Those projects included student and teacher educational programs at the Charlie Elliott Wildlife Center, educational videos and photography equipment to study wildlife to name a few.
