1001 Club

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The 1001 Club: A Nature Trust is a trust that helps fund the World Wide Fund for Nature. It was established in 1970 by the then head of the WWF, Prince Bernhard of the Netherlands, with help from Anton Rupert, a South African entrepreneur. They persuaded 1001 individuals to join the club, where each member would contribute US $10,000 to the trust. The resulting $10 million fund helps to towards the WWF's basic costs of administration.

An undoubtedly controversial article, but at the same time by far the most detailed on "the 1001". At the very least it shows a lot of additional research still needs to be done.
