Home

WELCOME

Friends of Malheur National Wildlife Refuge was formed in 1999 and is an independent non-profit 501(c)(3) corporation.

We are committed to conserving, enhancing, and restoring fish and wildlife habitat and cultural history in the Harney Basin of southeast Oregon through the support of Malheur National Wildlife Refuge staff and programs.

It's FRIENDSGiving Season!

Dear Friend,

As we near the end of this unprecedented year we look forward to 2021 with hopeful anticipation and endless possibilities! Two of the most exciting things we have planned are an innovative new youth education program, Bird Scouts, in addition to undergoing a full Refuge Tree Inventory and Assessment project! In order to accomplish this and more we are aiming to raise $10,000 through our End of Year Fundraising campaign.
