The Award for Volunteer Service is “presented annually
to partners who have made extraordinary contributions to the conservation of natural resources in the Southeast Region. With friends like (Nancy Marshall), our conservation efforts multiply far beyond what we can do alone,” said Cynthia K. Dohner, Regional Director of the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service.

From the Palm Beach Daily News:
from the Marshall Foundation President:
Marshall, Everglades foundations are supportive, but distinct

On behalf of the Arthur R. Marshall Foundation, which champions the restoration and preservation of the greater Everglades ecosystem, I want to congratulate the Everglades Foundation for hosting another successful fundraiser at The Breakers. At the same time, it is important to clarify the relationship between Palm Beach County's own Arthur R. Marshall Foundation and the Miami-based Everglades Foundation.
While we are mutually supportive and share the same goal of restoring and protecting the Everglades — in fact, the Marshall Foundation named the Everglades Foundation's former chairwoman Mary Barley as one of our first Champion of the Everglades award winners in 2008 — our two nonprofit organizations remain separate and distinct.
The Everglades Foundation has a more statewide and national focus in its effort to "help the environmental community develop the staff and tools necessary to tackle restoration challenges," while the Marshall Foundation's activities are more localized, grassroots and hands-on in nature.
Founded in 1998, the Marshall Foundation is widely recognized as a community leader in the delivery of award-winning environmental and restoration programs, working directly with the school district of Palm Beach County to reach and motivate more than 7,500 students a year. In recent years, we've also planted approximately 100,000 native Florida trees in wetland areas, awarded over $350,000 in scholarships and internships, and involved more than 5,000 volunteers in valuable restoration projects.
The Marshall Foundation is almost entirely funded by our generous supporters in Palm Beach County. We receive no financial aid from the Everglades Foundation or from any Everglades restoration projects funded by the state or federal government.
Over the next few years, we look forward to working more closely with the Everglades Foundation other environment-based nonprofit organizations in the Marshall Foundation's ongoing campaign to educate every citizen about the critical importance of Everglades restoration.
