Support VINS
Thank you for your generosity and passion for VINS and its mission. With your help, VINS has become New England’s premier environmental education organization – offering adults and children an opportunity to engage with some of the natural world’s most charismatic creatures through the Nature Center, school programs, or a community outreach.
As a nonprofit organization, VINS relies on caring individuals and organizations – like you – to broaden its reach in educating and stewarding the next generation, and change perceptions of the natural world.
Together we are able to:
- bring an engaging educational experience to all ages
- rehabilitate and care for hundreds of birds each year
- participate in avian and environmental research through programs, such as Community Science
For whatever reason you feel connected to VINS, we thank you for sharing its mission.
