Send Them on the Ecotour of a Lifetime
Many people have been waiting for the opportunity to travel again, and you can make that dream a reality by sending them on an ecotour with Bird Alliance of Oregon.

Make a Donation in Honor of Someone You Love
When you care deeply about the environment, the perfect gift may not be a physical item. It could be a recognition of your values and love of the natural world. A tribute gift is a great way to honor or memorialize your loved one by building on their legacy of advocating for birds, wildlife, and wild places. When you make a tribute gift, your loved one will be recognized in the Warbler newsletter, and you can send them or their next of kin an elegant songbird-themed card with the option to include a personalized message.
Sponsor a Wild Thing
Ruby the Turkey Vulture, Aristophanes the Common Raven, Xena the American Kestrel, Julio the Great Horned Owl, and Bybee the Western Painted Turtle hold a special place in the hearts of visitors of all ages. Brought in for various reasons and unable to be released back to the wild, these Animal Ambassadors call Bird Alliance of Oregon home, and you can help pay for their care. When you do, you can give or receive a membership to Bird Alliance of Oregon along with a fact sheet on the Ambassador Animals, a photo, and a Wild Thing Sponsorship certificate.
Youth Camps
In our winter, spring, and summer camps, youth may discover a coastal giant salamander along our trails, observe a Bald Eagle soaring over the Gorge, or see whales off the San Juan Islands. Or perhaps they want to learn archery, the craft of fire making, or nature photography. No matter what they choose, the child or teen in your life will get to learn, play, and explore, all while making friends, connecting to nature, and making lifelong memories.

Support More Birds through the Backyard Habitat Certification Program
Give a gift that will be around all year long and help our urban environment by signing your loved one up for the Backyard Habitat Certification Program. It’s the perfect gift for your favorite gardener, providing the tools they need to turn their yard into a native habitat oasis for wildlife. And nothing brings birds to the yard better than native plants. .
Give the Gift of Saving a Life
Give injured and orphaned wildlife a second chance by making a donation to support the operation of the Wildlife Care Center.
