The Monarch Butterfly Fund is committed to the conservation of monarch butterflies and their habitat. They primarily focus on protecting the oyamel fir forests in Mexico where monarch butterflies overwinter. The organization supports projects that aid in forest conservation, scientific research, outreach and education, and sustainable development, all aimed at preserving the monarch butterflies and improving the livelihood of local communities involved in these conservation efforts.
The Monarch Butterfly Fund grant program aims to support the conservation of monarch butterflies and their habitats through a variety of strategic initiatives. These include forest conservation efforts such as habitat restoration and management in the monarchs' Mexican overwintering sites, promotion of sustainable use of reforested areas, and support for local capacity building in conservation practices. They also back scientific research with a focus on forest and monarch conservation, encouraging proposals that address climate change impacts, forest restoration effectiveness, and monarch monitoring. Additionally, the program supports outreach and education to heighten awareness and appreciation for monarch conservation among local communities and supports sustainable development projects that improve the livelihoods of residents in the Monarch Butterfly Biosphere Reserve. Priority is given to Mexican organizations and individuals, with limited support available in the United States and Canada.
