Ducks Unlimited - Conserving Waterfowl and Wetlands

Through his company, Rise2Pro.com, Todd Bailey helps new entrepreneurs develop social media skills to promote their businesses. Rise2Pro.com operates out of Idaho but offers customers online classes and personal phone consultations. Away from his professional responsibilities, Todd Bailey supports various charities, including Ducks Unlimited (DU). 

Established in 1937, DU is a private conservation organization that is devoted to protecting wetlands and waterfowl. DU employs a variety of tools to accomplish its mission, including land protection using conservation easements, acquisitions, and revolving lands strategy. 

When a waterfowl habitat is at risk, DU may acquire the land to restore it and put conservation easements in place, thus preserving the resource for future generations. Easements place restrictions on the land to protect it. DU also employs revolving lands strategy when land with degraded habitats is placed on the market. The organization purchases the land, restores it, and puts easements in place for perpetual conservation.
