Satch Krantz Conservation Fund

Committed to taking actions to preserve the earth’s biodiversity.

Since 1996, Riverbanks has invested more than a million dollars in conservation efforts in South Carolina and around the globe with nearly half of those investments taking place since 2015.

Originally stewarded by now retired Chief Life Sciences Officer Ed Diebold and later renamed in honor of Riverbanks’ past President & CEO, the Satch Krantz Conservation Fund has grown to support more than 200 projects in over 36 countries in the last two decades. Today, it remains a resource for responding to environmental crises, like the devastating fires in the Pantanal, as well as supporting research into conservation issues, like the extent of illegal trade of wildlife occurring in the United States.

Beginning in 2023, Riverbanks will no longer solicit for applications to our annual small grants program. We are proud of the impact the small grants program has had advancing many conservation and research efforts around the world and are immensely grateful for the relationships it has allowed us to develop with conservationists near and far. Riverbanks has identified that, as a strategy, the small grants program is no longer the most effective approach to create the greatest impact with the resources of the Satch Krantz Conservation Fund.

Riverbanks’ conservation efforts will increasingly find focus on ways we can positively impact local wildlife through strategic partnerships, enhance landscapes for native species, and address the devastating effect of wildlife trafficking on species locally and globally.
