Community Support
We so appreciate the commitment of community members, businesses and area organizations to support our mission of public awareness and involvement in nature through education, conservation and eco-tourism.
Matagorda County Birding Nature Center operates on revenues consisting of entrance fees, event fees, memberships, fundraisers, grants and donations. The 501(c)(3) is managed predominantly with volunteers and a working board of directors.
Please consider partnering with us through an annual membership.
