The National Wildlife Refuge Association (NWRA) is an innovative and energetic organization whose mission statement says it all: "To conserve America’s wildlife heritage for future generations through strategic programs that protect and enhance the National Wildlife Refuge System and the landscapes beyond its boundaries." I volunteer for this nonprofit organization through my work as the founding president of a Friends of a National Wildlife Refuge 501(c)(3) group. NWRA offers unlimited support to all nonprofit Friends of National Wildlife Refuges by helping these groups connect across the country in order to share ideas and skills. Each of the Friends of Refuges groups which NWRA lends its support to are then more able to offer their support to local Wildlife Refuges. My love of nature photography, especially being able to photograph migrating birds such as Tundra Swans and Aleutian Cackling Geese first brought me to National Wildlife Refuges. NWRA has given me the opportunity to join their mission of making sure my favorite wildlife will always be there for generations to come.
