The politically active members of SCI hunt on federal, state and private lands, and globally. They vote in federal, state, and local elections to protect their hunting opportunities, to conserve our nation's wildlife, and to conserve wildlife around the world. SCI's is the country's leader in advocacy to protect the freedom to hunt and to promote wildlife conservation worldwide. SCI's approximately 50,000 members and 200 Chapters represent all 50 of the United States as well as 106 other countries.

Mission and Purpose
The mission of SCI is to protect the freedom to hunt and to promote wildlife conservation worldwide. The purposes of SCI are....
- To advocate, preserve and protect the rights of all hunters.
- To promote safe, legal and ethical hunting and related activities.
- To advocate within the limits imposed by law and regulation.
- To monitor, support, or otherwise take positions on local, national and international legislative, executive, judicial or organizational endeavors that foster and support SCI's mission and purposes.
- To inform and educate the public concerning hunting and related activities.
SCI members help shape and promote the image of the hunter to the general public, through their words and actions. In addition to practicing ethical hunting while in the field, SCI members give back by participating in educational, civic, conservation, and humanitarian efforts across the globe.
Resources We Have To Offer
In SCI's office on Capitol Hill, we have experienced lobbyists, litigators, policy makers, and social media experts working hand-in-hand with wildlife biologists from our sister organization, the Safari Club International Foundation. We administer the largest hunter-led Political Action Committee (SCI-PAC), which helps support campaigns of legislators on both sides of the aisle. SCI's Washington, D.C. office has the capacity to:
- Develop, edit, and analyze legislation.
- Defend federal actions, rules, plans and policies in federal and state courts.
- Alert and generate support for federal and state legislation through our communications network.
- Support candidates in federal and state races throughout the country.
- Draft scientifically supported comment letters and white papers on hunting related decision-making.
SCI Record Book
With over 200,000 entries, the SCI Record Book is the largest of its kind in the world, SCI's Record Book is considered the gold standard of encyclopedias of big-game animals. The unique program and all-inclusive scoring system has helped document the hunting heritage since 1977. All entries are submitted by hunters and verified by Master Measurers to ensure accuracy. SCI contributes 100 percent of the net proceeds from the Record Book and its World Hunting Awards - which recognizes hunters who have achieved exceptional levels of big-game success - to conservation and anti-poaching efforts.
SCI Chapters
Safari Club International offers tremendous benefits to both Chapters and members. The more that Chapters and members take advantage of everything SCI has to offer, the more value SCI has to them.

SCI Foundation Research Projects
Safari Club International Foundation has a 20-year history of being a leader in science-based, research-driven solutions to real problems facing wildlife conservation and sustainable use of wildlife resources. We partner with leading wildlife researchers at places like the Wyoming Migration Initiative at the University of Wyoming, the Center for Global Wildlife Conservation at SUNY-ESF, and the W.A. Franke College of Forestry and Conservation at the University of Montana, to bring the latest applied techniques to wildlife conservation issues. However, doing cutting-edge, impactful research requires resources.

The annual African Wildlife Consultative Forum (AWCF) is SCI Foundation's premier activity in Africa, bringing together a diverse group of international stakeholders, senior government delegates, professional hunting associations, policy experts and wildlife biologists. Discussions at this forum center on African wildlife issues and coordinating responses to current events.
Outdoor Education
Education makes a difference in wildlife conservation. Sportsmen and women, avid in their passion of the outdoors, pass on their knowledge to peers and young people to continue our outdoor heritage.
What better way to learn about the outdoors and nature than by attending educational programs and workshops that not only focus on conservation education but demonstrate how to use the outdoors and nature as a classroom!

Chapter Spotlight
Trade shows have been a huge benefit for the New England Chapter, especially ones where we take our Mobile Wildlife Education Center. We’ve gotten a lot of exposure because of it, and it keeps rewarding us with opportunities.
We just got home from a 3 day event with over 3000 people in attendance each day. Having the trailer as a “sensory safari” is a great way to break the ice for both non hunters and experienced hunters alike. It allows us to talk about the different game animals and answer questions people might have about hunting, or just the animals in their backyard. Its been a great way to educate people about what SCI is, and the job we do to help aide in conservation and preserving hunting rights.
The trailer has also allowed us sponsorship opportunities with both local and national brands, that has been mutually beneficial for all those involved. We started off doing 2 or 3 much smaller trade shows, but after this year, we will have logged almost a dozen shows, and really brought some awareness to SCI. After only having the trailer for one year, we now receive requests for the trailer’s presence. These request come from Boy Scout Groups, gun clubs, Fish & Game field days and Firearm manufacturer open houses. We also hold raffles at the shows, which is a huge draw, and gets our foot in the door to talk to people about the banquet and membership benefits. These raffles normally gross $4,000 per show and help fund the trails day to day.
SCI would like to thank the following Sponsors:
