Michigan United Conservation Clubs Announces Dissolution After Nearly 90 Years of Conservation Advocacy
LANSING, Mich. – May 4, 2026
The Board of Directors of Michigan United Conservation Clubs (MUCC), a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, has unanimously approved a resolution to dissolve the organization, subject to all applicable legal and regulatory requirements.
For nearly 90 years, MUCC has served as a unified voice for conservation in Michigan, championing hunters, anglers, and outdoor enthusiasts through advocacy, education, and partnerships with state agencies and the broader conservation community.
Despite the deep commitment of its members, partners, and supporters, MUCC has faced sustained financial challenges that have impacted its long-term sustainability. Following careful evaluation of the organizations financial condition and available options, the Board determined that an orderly dissolution represents the most responsible course of action.
The dissolution process is expected to be completed by mid-June 2026 and will proceed in accordance with applicable federal and state laws governing nonprofit dissolution, including the orderly wind-down of operations, satisfaction of all obligations, and distribution of any remaining assets consistent with MUCC’s charitable purpose and 501(c)(3) requirements.
MUCC extends its sincerest gratitude to its members, partners, donors, and supporters for their longstanding commitment to its mission.
Additional updates will be provided as appropriate.
