The ICPS strives to support conservation and education initiatives. Donations fund research and the protection of threatened habitats across the globe. ICPS grants are directed towards programs that have demonstrated effectiveness at stewarding sites, to promote their native carnivorous plants and biological processes that encourage their continued presence. Educational programs such as the ‘Carnivores in the Classroom’ grant support the goal of teaching children science related standards and instilling a love of carnivorous plants. The ICPS has funded prescribed burns at bog sites, restoration of endangered habitats, and has partnered with the US Forest Service to remove an introduced species from a protected national botanical area. Contributions to the ICPS support these and other endeavors to preserve these unique species.
