RMEF Member

I have been a RMEF member for multiple years and would love to become a lifetime member, however, there are just financial restraints for my and family and at the moment. I cannot say enough positive things about the RMEF. I understand that there are very tangible endeavors that the RMEF are performing every year behind the scenes that I would love to be a part of permanently. I want to show my kids the importance of wildlife conservation and hunting preservation. Not only is it extremely improtant to me, but it is vital to keeping nature as God intended it.
