The Habitat Conservation Trust Foundation (HCTF) is a not for profit charitable foundation established in 2007. The primary purpose of the Foundation is to act as Trustee of the Habitat Conservation Trust, which was created in 2007 by an amendment to the Wildlife Act.

Hunters, anglers, trappers and guide-outfitters contribute to the Foundation’s enhancement and education projects through license surcharges.
