About the ABC/How you can help
Saving Florida's wilderness was Allen Broussard's dream. As a child, he loved roaming the area next to the family's Crescent J Ranch. As an adult and a Wildlife Ecologist, Allen came to understand the lands ecological value. Allen’s parents, Dr. William Broussard and his wife, Margaret, made Allen's dream of protecting the land come true after his all-too-early passing. Allen died just 4 days after his 29th birthday, from complications from Hodgkin's Disease. Dr. and Mrs. Broussard honored their son by founding the Allen Broussard Conservancy for the purpose of purchasing the land (now known as Forever Florida) and protecting it as a wildlife preserve. Visitors to Forever Florida make a positive impact on the environment as a substantial portion of proceeds (30%) go toward the purchase of additional lands to be conserved and the promotion of conservation education.
