Protecting Pollinators Nationwide
About Save The Bees USA
We are a national nonprofit advancing bee and pollinator conservation through education, habitat restoration, responsible beekeeping, advocacy, and community action.
Who We Are
A National Nonprofit Built Around Pollinator Conservation
Founded in 2023, Save The Bees USA is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit helping people understand, support, and protect the pollinators that sustain ecosystems and the food supply.
Education and Action Belong Together
Pollinator conservation becomes stronger when people can move from learning to meaningful action. We create programs that make the lives of bees visible, connect communities with practical projects, and support the habitats pollinators need.
Our work brings together students, educators, beekeepers, families, businesses, and conservation partners. Each group has a role in creating healthier places for honey bees, native bees, and other pollinators.
By combining clear education with hands-on conservation, we help turn concern for bees into lasting stewardship.
Our Purpose
Mission and Vision
We work toward a future where healthy pollinator populations and informed communities strengthen one another.
Our Mission
To safeguard the health and longevity of bee populations by advancing pollinator conservation through education, advocacy, responsible beekeeping, habitat restoration, and community engagement.
We inspire environmental stewardship so people across the country understand why pollinators matter and how everyday choices can help protect them.
Our Vision
A future where bees and other pollinators thrive in healthy, diverse ecosystems; communities actively participate in conservation; and new generations have the knowledge and confidence to protect the natural world.
We envision pollinator-friendly places becoming a normal part of schools, gardens, farms, businesses, and neighborhoods.
Why Bees Matter
Small Pollinators Support Entire Ecosystems
Bees move pollen between flowers, helping plants reproduce and supporting the food, habitat, and biodiversity that people and wildlife rely on.
Protecting More Than Honey Bees
Honey bees are important agricultural pollinators, but they are only part of the story. Native bumblebees, mason bees, and many other solitary bee species are essential to wild plants, gardens, farms, and resilient ecosystems.
Pollinators face pressure from habitat loss, limited forage, pesticide exposure, disease, and changing environmental conditions. Conservation requires both large-scale support and simple local actions.
Planting diverse flowers, protecting nesting habitat, using chemicals responsibly, and sharing accurate information all help create safer places for pollinators.
What We Focus On
Four Connected Paths to Conservation
Our work is organized around clear priorities that reinforce one another.
Education
We help students, educators, families, and communities understand pollinators through observation hives, school programs, workshops, and practical learning.
Restauración de hábitats
We support native planting, nesting habitat, and community projects that give pollinators the food and shelter they need.
Apicultura responsable
We promote practices that prioritize colony health, thoughtful management, accurate education, and long-term sustainability.
Acción Comunitaria
We give schools, organizations, businesses, and individuals practical ways to support conservation through programs, partnerships, volunteering, and donations.
