Your support needed for the Ash Canyon Facilities Fund!

Southeastern Arizona Bird Observatory Posted on April 28, 2021 by SWilliamsonApril 28, 2021

The caretakers’ residence and other facilities at Ash Canyon Bird Sanctuary are in need of some costly repairs and upgrades, including an energy-efficient heating/cooling system, kitchen appliances, electrical and plumbing repairs, and more. Your support can help to make the sanctuary residence more livable and comfortable for volunteer caretakers Tim Blount and Kristy Reske and other facilities safer, more functional, and more accessible for other volunteers, staff, and visitors.

To make these improvements possible, we’ve set up a special fund devoted to this ongoing project. We hope we can count on the support of the sanctuary’s thousands of friends, fans, and followers. If you can help, please use the form below to make a donation to the Fund. Thank you for your support of SABO and Ash Canyon Bird Sanctuary!
