UPPER MICHIGAN - Michigan United Conservation Clubs faces closure if it doesn't raise $100,000 by May 1. President Stephen Dey says the nonprofit has been selling assets for over 20 years to stay afloat. The group paused magazine production and youth camps in March due to financial struggles. Established in 1937, MUCC says it is the largest statewide conservation organization in the U.S., advocating for hunting, fishing, and trapping rights. The executive board is fundraising to find a new funding model. As of Tuesday, $24,000 has been raised. If the goal isn't met, Dey says the board will decide whether to dissolve the organization.
