The program achieves this through support of direct habitat improvement programs, public education, outreach programs and employee engagement. In 2023, ConocoPhillips Alaska awarded a total of $282,500.00, between 16 different projects. Here are some highlights:

• $50,000 to Ducks Unlimited - TN to support its study: "The Impact of Growing Goose Numbers in Alaska."
• $40,000 to Alaska Trails to support the Alaska Long Trail (ALT) Project Workbook, a multi-page information repository for the ALT, resulting in a package of trail maps, segment costs, and priorities for initial investment. The ALT is a multi-braid, multi-use 500-mile trail system project connecting Fairbanks and Seward. 
• $25,000 to The Conservation Fund for the Saddle Trail Property Acquisition, a 5-acre parcel within Kachemak Bay State Park. This parcel is in Halibut Cove and will protect beach-front public access to the Saddle Trail, one of the most popular hiking trails in Alaska.

The program is designed to directly target those students severely impacted by Covid-19 and the compounding effects of historical poverty, violence, and low academic achievement and to support them to achieve academic success.
