Overview
New Venture Fund (NVF) is a public, charitable organization dedicated to supporting innovative and effective public interest projects.

Their strategic niche is to move quickly as capacity or strategic gaps are identified in western land, water and clean energy initiatives and mitigate them through contracts and grants to key players. Subject areas of recent work include off road vehicles, Bureau of Land Management conservation lands, energy development on Indian lands, and state level public education campaigns in Arizona, Nevada, New Mexico and Colorado.
