Help us make sure that hunting always has a future in Florida,” said Chairman Barreto. “Florida is like no other place on earth, and working together we can keep it that way.” About the Fish and Wildlife Foundation of Florida: The FWFF is a 501c3 nonprofit started in 1994 as the citizen support group for the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC).
