Make a Wish

Child blowing a dandelion

Now that summer is almost here, what’s on your wish list? Picnicking on a perfect day, hiking with family and friends, or camping out under the stars—s’mores anyone?

You can do all this and more at Mass Audubon’s 56 wildlife sanctuaries. But to make this possible there are a few things on our wish list, including:

  • Maintain hundreds of miles of walking trails
  • Protect threatened diamondback terrapins and other wildlife
  • Welcome 10,000 kids—many with scholarship support – to our camps
  • Tend to pollinator-friendly native gardens found at many of our sanctuaries

You can help wishes come true! Your generosity will protect and care for these beautiful and important natural places, and the wildlife that depends on them.

Please make a gift today, then come visit your local Mass Audubon wildlife sanctuary to see what a difference your support makes. With your donation of $35 or more you’ll receive a Mass Audubon Magnet Set with four different wildlife designs.

Thank you!

Scenes from Tidmarsh

Great news! Thanks to the amazing support of individuals and foundations, we’ve raised 95% of our fundraising goal to protect Tidmarsh Farms and transform it into a wildlife sanctuary.

You can help get us over the finish line by donating today. Bonus: all new gifts will be matched dollar for dollar!

Need some inspiration? Check out some recent photos and videos taken at Tidmarsh. Better yet, come to an upcoming walk to see if for yourself.
