That’s a wrap! We met 97% of our $50,000 fundraising goal with $48,684.98 raised by our awesome Birdathon fundraisers! The teams’ hard work birding and fundraising really blew us away and we are so grateful to have such amazing supporters of Houston Audubon. Our awards celebration at the cabin was a great success and lots of fun. Please plan on participating next year in Birdathon 2024!
P.S. It’s not too late to donate to Birdathon! Click here to help get us over the goal line!
