Other Donation Opportunities
Our Federal Duck Stamp and Junior Duck Stamp programs also accept direct donations.

Your donation to the Federal Duck Stamp Program will help to conserve habitat for migratory birds and other wildlife on our nation's  national wildlife refuges. The Federal Duck Stamp Program is one of the nation's oldest and most successful conservation efforts, resulting in the conservation of more than 6.5 million acres to date.

A donation to the Junior Duck Stamp Program supports the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service's premier conservation education programs, which combines science and the arts to educate tens of thousands of children each year about waterfowl, wetlands and environmental responsibility.
