A wide variety of workgroups operate outside of governmental systems of stewardship. A portion of private stewardship effort is supported by Funding from State, Provincial or Federal sources. Non-Governmental Organizations descirbe a wide range of private workgroups that don't operate to make a profit. They may survive off membership, donors, or public or private grants. NGOs may be created by governments or for-profit corporations to serve their purposes. Land Trusts are a particularly important type of NGO that holds Conservation Lands in trust. Many private for-profit companies provide goods and services to support stewardship. The vast majority of land is privately owned with owners that care about stewardship and may even create defacto Conservation Lands. Sometimes groups of people just work together in Non-Institutional Workgroups.
