"As Bradford, Pennsylvania, has been Case’s home for over one hundred years, countless employees and their families have enjoyed and advocated for our region’s abundant natural resources,” said Brent Tyler, vice president of global marketing at Case. “We are proud to support the conservation efforts behind the NWTF’s Forest and Flocks program so our region can thrive for future generations.”
Through a collaboration, Case will serve as a sponsor of the NWTF's Forests and Flocks Initiative while also supporting NWTF outreach efforts through sweepstakes promotions, media campaigns and conservation messaging aimed at engaging hunters, conservationists and outdoor enthusiasts.
“Corporate relationships like this are critical to advancing meaningful conservation work on the ground,” said Natalia Daniels, NWTF national director of corporate relations and licensing. “Case has long represented a strong connection to America’s outdoor heritage, and their support of Forests and Flocks will help expand habitat work that benefits wild turkeys, hunters and countless other wildlife species throughout the Northeast.”
Forests and Flocks is one of the NWTF’s regional conservation initiatives designed to address the unique conservation challenges within the region. The initiative focuses on improving forest structure and creating young forest habitat through active forest management practices, providing habitat for wild turkeys for their annual-cycle needs.
The initiative emphasizes partnerships with state and federal agencies, private landowners and conservation organizations to improve forest resilience, increase biodiversity and support sustainable wildlife populations throughout the region.
The initiative also focuses on the NWTF’s mission to preserve our hunting heritage, boosting regional support for hunting and increasing the organization’s voice against recurring proposed legislation that is in opposition to the NWTF’s mission.
In addition to supporting conservation efforts, Case will participate as a sponsor of an upcoming NWTF membership sweepstakes. The collaboration will include promotional campaigns through NWTF digital channels, newsletters, social media and magazine publications, helping connect members and supporters with conservation initiatives and outdoor traditions.
The collaboration will also feature Case products in NWTF media, including advertisements and product reviews in JAKES magazine and NWTF newsletters.
