BIRDS OF PREY SCHOOL PROGRAMS
|
|
"If all the birds die then we are next” says Phil Huxford the driving force behind the Birds of Prey (BOP) program since its inception in 2002. The BOP program features owls, hawks, falcons, vultures and teaches children and adults the value and importance birds are to us and the natural world. In 2023 Huxford presented 48 BOP programs at Brazoria, Matagorda, and Wharton County area Elementary Schools attended by 18,800 students and teachers. The BOP programs are offered for free to the area schools and are supported by donations from individuals, small businesses, and corporations. Please consider donating as funding has not kept pace with the program’s growth. As our young people spend less and less time outside, it is imperative we teach them the importance of the natural world. |
Phil Huxford has grown the School Birds of Prey program from just a few programs a year to 48 programs in 2023. The number of programs we can do each year is limited by the funds that are raised. Each program costs $500.00 and if you could attend one of the programs you would see the excitment the BOP generates. Because our children spend so little time outdoors, we need to continue to impress on them the importance of the natural world. Please consider making a donation to support the BOP school program. Even $1.00 helps or perhaps you would like to sponsor a school program.
