The foundation provides support to initiatives that enhance conservation and protection of our natural environment. Mr. Bacon and the foundation have taken leadership roles in conservation, land preservation and habitat management, both receiving numerous... accolades for their steadfast dedication and commitment to protecting the environment.

In January 2013, Mr. Bacon received the prestigious Audubon Medal from the National Audubon Society, an award that has only been given 51 times over the 107 years of the Audubon's existence.

As a result of their collective efforts, the developers were stopped, the Bahamas Clifton Heritage Authority was established and the Clifton Heritage National Park was created to protect Clifton forever for the benefit of the Bahamian people.
