Applalachian Trail Conservancy The Appalachian Trail Conservancy is a volunteer-based, private nonprofit organization dedicated to the conservation of the 2,175-mile Appalachian National Scenic Trail, a 250,000-acre greenway extending from Maine to Georgia. Their mission is to ensure that future generations will enjoy the clean air and water, scenic vistas, wildlife and opportunities for simple recreation and renewal along the entire Trail corridor. Mountaineer Food Bank Mountaineer Food Bank, a private, non-profit organization, was founded in 1981 as the result of the efforts of an anti-hunger coalition. These caring people were operating feeding programs in West Virginia, and they were looking for ways to feed more people with their funds. A report
on hunger in West Virginia reveals that 37 percent of children under
age 12
are hungry or at risk of hunger in West Virginia, according to Margaret Miltenberger, Executive Director, West Virginia Coalition on Food and Nutrition |
