The Friends is a 501(c)(3) non-profit that was founded in 2001 to advocate on behalf of the Upper Missouri River Breaks National Monument (Breaks). Located in central Montana, the Breaks surrounds the wild and scenic Missouri River as it flows through nearly half-a-million acres of central Montana prairies and badlands. The Friends protect and preserve the Breaks through their advocacy, education and stewardship work.
For more than 80 years, MWF’s network of affiliated conservation organizations has worked tirelessly to help move forward the protection and enhancement of Montana’s wildlife, wildlife habitat, and public access. Without these organizations, MWF would not be able to do the quality work that we are recognized for. If you think your organization would benefit from becoming an affiliate of MWF, contact Marcus Strange, Program and Partnership Director, at mstrange@mtwf.org.
