Support my team in the Great Wisconsin Birdathon!
These funds support the BIPOC Birding Club of Wisconsin’s Birding Backpack Program and Bus to Nature Program — and we need your help! Our goal is to raise $5,000 to continue serving our community through inclusive birding and nature access. Your donations help to support programming such as:
The Natural Resources Foundation of Wisconsin's Bird Protection Fund, which funds Wisconsin's highest priority bird conservation projects.
Our club’s work to bring Birding Backpacks into local neighborhood centers and community hubs. Each backpack costs an estimated $300! 🎒

Your Donation Makes a Difference For Birds
Donations made to the Great Wisconsin Birdathon support the Natural Resources Foundation of Wisconsin’s Bird Protection Fund, which has given out over $1.4 million towards Wisconsin’s highest priority bird conservation projects since its inception in 2009.
Whether it's creating Piping Plover habitat, rearing Whooping Crane chicks, spreading awareness about declining songbirds, supporting community initiatives for bird-friendly neighborhoods, engaging new and underrepresented voices in the birding community, building impactful collaborations to protect Wisconsin's Important Bird Areas, or protecting our neotropical migrants on their long migratory journeys to Central America... the Bird Protection Fund is there to help.
Your donations make this work possible. Thank you for supporting on-the-ground conservation and being there #ForTheBirds!
