Winchester Ammunition Receives NWTF Corporate Achievement Award
EAST ALTON, IL (February 16, 2024) — Winchester Ammunition was awarded the National Wild Turkey Federation’s Corporate Achievement Award at the NWTF 48th Annual Convention and Sport Show. The award recognizes Winchester for its unwavering partnership and consistent support of the NWTF mission.
“Winchester has demonstrated its leadership in conservation for decades,” Winchester Ammunition President Brett Flaugher. “We were the first million-dollar sponsor of the NWTF and have remained committed to their mission. It’s an honor to be recognized by the NWTF with this award. The NWTF continues to be one of the most important conservation organizations in our country, and we will continue to support their efforts that positively impact wildlife and our hunting heritage.”
With Winchester’s combined sponsorship support to date, the company has achieved NWTF’s Pinnacle Partner Level in the NWTF’s Corporate Conservation Circle. Additionally, with its philanthropic support, Winchester is a Conservation Leader major donor. In total, Winchester has provided over $2 million for the NWTF’s mission to date.
In 2024, Winchester continues to support the NWTF with the Winchester Long Beard® XR®, limited edition ‘Committed to Conservation’ ammunition. A collaboration with Mossy Oak and the NWTF, the commemorative ammunition will be for sale in the NWTF Turkey Shoppe (in addition to other Winchester turkey ammunition products).
“Winchester is an ardent supporter of our mission to conserve the wild turkey and preserve our hunting heritage,” NWTF co-CEO Jason Burckhalter said. “Whether it is helping bring more people into the NWTF flock, supporting our education and outreach programs, or coming up with innovative ways to help raise funds for conservation, Winchester is a dedicated supporter. We are proud to present them with the 2024 Corporate Achievement Award.”
