Two Philadelphia-area business leaders recently joined The Nature Conservancy’s Pennsylvania Board of Trustees.

John Ehinger and Will Whetzel were voted onto the state board of the Conservancy, the leading conservation organization working in Pennsylvania and around the world to conserve the lands and waters on which all life depends.

“The Nature Conservancy’s solutions-driven approach to conservation is well known,” said Bill Kunze, the Conservancy’s state director in Pennsylvania. “We often work with the private sector to find ways to sustainably balance the needs of both people and nature. Having trustees who are knowledgeable about the business community is essential to our success.”
