The Trust, in conjunction with the Conservation Federation of Missouri, has established several programs in the spirit of conservation and nature for Missourians. These include the annual Missouri Conservationist of the Year Awards, the Conservation Leadership Corps, the Charles Bell Scholarships, and classroom grants.

The Foundation also has many of its own programs, including the Turner Katy Trail Shelter, numerous scholarships and grants, and the Charles Schwartz Bronze Sculpture Collection. We invite you to explore our collection, which is on display at the Runge Center, or to spend the night at the Turner Shelter.
