Maine Audubon

MAINE AUDUBON works to conserve Maine's wildlife and wildlife habitat by engaging people of all ages in education, conservation and action.

Description:
Support for Maine Audubon comes from its 11,000 members, donors and volunteers, including individuals, foundations and corporations. Maine Audubon is an affiliate of Audubon's national organization and has local chapters statewide; membership in Maine Audubon includes Audubon membership at the national, state and local levels.

Maine Audubon's 3,000 acres of wildlife sanctuary, and its community-based environmental centers, citizen science programs and hundreds of trips, programs, classes and camps offer young children through senior citizens wide-ranging opportunities to explore, learn about and care for Maine's wildlife throughout the year.

History:
With a 160-year history of connecting people with nature, Maine Audubon is the only organization in Maine working to conserve wildlife in three ways: providing hands-on environmental education for people of all ages, conducting research and wildlife conservation projects statewide and taking action to help shape effective science-based conservation policy.
