Leadership Friends

Together, We’re Leading the Way

Leadership Friends are a passionate community of nature advocates dedicated to preserving the natural beauty and health of Massachusetts. Making a gift of $1,000 or more to Mass Audubon or any of our sanctuaries enrolls you as a Leadership Friend, and empowers Mass Audubon to protect the nature of Massachusetts, improve access to nature for our communities, and grow the next generation of nature’s stewards.

Leadership Friends enjoy a full year of access to Mass Audubon’s 60+ wildlife sanctuaries, nature programs, and exclusive events with our leadership and naturalists. We offer in-person experiences every season, complemented by virtual programs that allow you to engage from anywhere. You’ll experience behind-the-scenes visits, an early view of our conservation priorities, and unique opportunities to connect with like-minded supporters.

To make your gift across smaller monthly payments sign up as a Sustaining Leadership Friend.
