Conservation First USA (CFUSA) presented the Arizona Game and Fish Department (Department) a check for $507,930. on July 8, 2025. This money was raised in Phase 2 of CFUSA’s ‘24-‘25 Commissioner’s Special Big Game Tag Raffle campaign. Phase 1 of CFUSA’s campaign closed on December 19, 2024 and raised $441,530.

A total of $949,460.00 was raised in this ’24-’25 campaign, and every dollar was returned to the Department for wildlife and habitat work through their Habitat Partnership Committee. While money raised for a particular species is designated for that species, the reality is all of Arizona’s wildlife benefits from these funds through this conservation work and projects.
