We are fundraising for the following projects!
Bolus Education Kits!
Albatross boluses from Papahānaumokuākea are mailed all over the world to teach students about the life history of seabirds. Seabirds are impacted by marine debris, and this educational tool brings the threats to wildlife directly into the hands of our future environmental stewards. Your donation will provide bolus dissection kit supplies, including dissection trays, dissection tools, glass mason jars, organizer trays, clear casting and coating epoxy resin, storage desiccants |
Quarantine Clothing and Field Supplies!
The islands within Papahānaumokuākea are fragile ecosystems and vulnerable to introduced species. All personnel accessing the islands must adhere to strict biosecurity rules to prevent the spread of unwanted alien pests. All clothing and soft goods used on the islands must be purchased new, and can be a large expense for research volunteers. Furthermore, food for these excursions is not always covered. Your donation will help to offset the costs that volunteers incur when donating their time to the Refuge. |
General Fund for Friends of Hawaiian Islands!
We are an entirely volunteer-run organization with exciting goals. Donations to our general fund help keep the lights on. We hope to develop a curriculum about the cultural and natural history of Papahānaumokuākea Marine National Monument. Furthermore, your donation helps us advocate in the legislature for our Refuge system and wildlife protection. |
