Mission

Since its inception in 1988, NIPS has strived to raise funds so we may fulfill our mission. Through the years the Society has donated over $33,900 in support of local, national, and international avian research and conservation projects. Many types of fundraising activities were held to raise the funds needed to donate to these groups. Past fundraisers include: raffles for an embroidered jacket and afghan, scratch cards, bird shaped pens, Entertainment® Books, Avon sun screen and bird fairs. At this time, NIPS concentrates its fundraising effort on our annual "Flying into Knowledge" Seminar. Our 4th annual seminar will be held on Saturday, September 30, 2006. This annual seminar serves a dual purpose to support the NIPS mission by educating bird owners and raising funds for avian causes.
