raised to bring birds back! Whoop, whoop! We set out to raise $100,000 for Wisconsin's birds... but we raised $117K instead! This has been another record-breaking season for the Great Wisconsin Birdathon and we could not be more grateful for the support of our participants, our donors, and our sponsors. Thank you everyone for joining us to bird for a cause! We hope you enjoy this look back at our 2022 season, which marked a decade of successful fundraising for the Bird Protection Fund. Wisconsin is truly a state #ForTheBirds!
