By leveraging our entrepreneurial mindset and fostering a culture of innovation, we strive to bring forth creative solutions to safeguard these unique places that bring agricultural, ecological, and natural value.

Our fiscal resources and stewardship acumen make us one of the premier partners for conservation and mitigation projects in North America.

clark harrisHello!

Unique Places to Save is a group of entrepreneurs who share a passion for nature. Our board of directors is comprised of business owners and individuals who think outside the box. They have experience across various industries from real estate development to software startups. As executive director, I bring my 17 years of experience from tech start-ups. I’ve learned that the foundation for a healthy organization lies in building a culture that can sustain growth in perpetuity. That coupled with a focus on people (our team, our clients, our partners, and our vendors) leads to long-lasting relationships with everyone we interact with.

Nature is one of the greatest gifts the world has to offer and our shared passion for it by everyone in our organization is what fuels our drive to push forward through uncertainty and challenges.

Here at Unique Places to Save we are playing our part in preserving these unique and natural places for generations to come. Having clean water and highly functioning wetlands is not only beneficial to the human population but also critical for the plants, animals and insects that comprise a healthy ecosystem. Everything is interconnected and we must work together to find alignment between our needs as the human species as well as the needs of all other forms of life.

As the world changes, so must we. Entrepreneurship is on the rise because complex problems can no longer be solved through the status queue. We must bring innovative ideas and approaches to the conservation challenges facing us today. We are deeply proud of what we have accomplished over the last 10 years and feel that we’re only getting started. We invite you to join our journey by following along with our updates and getting involved in projects that resonate.

Together, we can restore and conserve more of the unique places in our great country.

Sincerely,
clark-sig
