Below some of the organizations Elkpen has done work for, and press links too.

Friends of the Los Angeles River is a non-profit organization founded in 1986 to protect and restore the natural and historic heritage of the Los Angeles River and its riparian habitat through inclusive planning, education and wise stewardship. www.folar.org

Southwestern Nova Scotia is a distinct biosphere, and the Mersey Tobeatic Research Institute (MTRI) is fostering the sustainable use of natural resources there. For the last three years I have been working with MTRI to create imagery that is printed on folded cards and postcards for their fundraising and awareness campaigns. If you would like to support MTRI, please visit their website and search under products. www.merseytobeatic.ca)

CPAWS supported my work with MTRI on our right whale project www.cpaws.org.

Ikanawtiket, an Aboriginal Environmental Respect organization with a large species at risk focus, also supported the work I did on marine species at risk for MTRI http://www.ikanawtiket.ca.

The Wildlife Conservation Society saves wildlife and wild places worldwide. They do this through science, global conservation, education and the management of the world's largest system of urban wildlife parks, led by the flagship Bronx Zoo. Together these activities change attitudes towards nature and help people imagine wildlife and humans living in harmony. WCS is committed to this mission because it is essential to the integrity of life on Earth. www.wcs.org
