Make a Direct Impact For Chicagoland Birds
Why Donate to BCN?
We are a 100% volunteer-led and staffed non-profit 501(c)(3) organization working together for birds and their habitats in the Chicagoland region through monitoring, species assessments, research, advocacy, education, and conservation. We focus on efforts that directly relate to and benefit our local birds, and as a regional organization we help local groups rally together to maximize our impact. A portion of our expenses are funded in part by dues from each of our organizational and individual representatives, but the remainder of our funding comes from donations that help us perform larger tasks including data analyses, database management, research projects, communications, public relations, and creating tools for bird conservation and habitat management.
