Support Echoes of Nature by becoming a member
Why Become a Member?
Since 2002, Echoes of Nature has been reconnecting people of all ages with the natural world through fun and educational programs.
Our nature-themed programs, featuring live animal ambassadors, are offered at schools, early learning centers, adult centers, and community events across Maryland. Many of our animal ambassadors are native to the mid-Atlantic region and have been adopted from wildlife rescues and shelters.
We care for over 100 animal ambassadors, including mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, and invertebrates. These incredible animals are the heart of our programs and stay with us for life.
How Your Membership Helps
We can't do it alone—we need your help! Caring for so many animals is costly, and we rely on the generosity of our members to sustain our mission. Your annual, tax-deductible donation will directly support the health and well-being of our aging ambassadors, such as Blizzard, our 25-year-old red-tailed hawk, Mystique, a 21-year-old blue tongue skink, Ben, a 17-year-old chinchilla, Rebel, a 6-year-old ferret, and Shakespeare, a 45+-year-old eastern box turtle.
Our next step is to establish a Wildlife Discovery Center to expand our reach and provide even more engaging programs and exhibits. Your support will also help us create an enjoyable environmental literacy asset for Maryland.
