Danielle Murray
Danielle joined the National Conservation System Foundation as a Wyss Fellow in the summer of 2008. As a fellow, Danielle is gaining hands on experience while playing an essential role in the fundraising, management, communications, capacity building and all other aspects of the Foundation.


The Wyss Fellows Program provides campaign experience and training for individuals who have the potential to become future conservation leaders. Fellows work at sponsoring organizations on a variety of projects and campaigns determined by the sponsoring organization during their two-year fellowship. Fellows must focus their work on one or more of the following areas: Eastern Oregon, Idaho, Wyoming, Montana, Utah, Colorado, Nevada, Arizona, or New Mexico.
Wyss Fellowships are ideal for talented and committed individuals just completing their education and looking to launch their career in conservation, or for those looking to make a career change. Fellows gain experience in all aspects of conservation advocacy, including policy development, grassroots and grasstops organizing, coalition-building, research and writing, media and communications, and fundraising.
Fellows also participate in annual week-long training programs, where they have the chance to meet and learn about other Wyss Fellows’ work.
