Beaver Corps Professional Training and Fundraiser Update

Nearly 2 weeks ago the Beaver Institute launched a new Beaver Corps training program with a corresponding fundraiser. I have some good news and some bad news.

The good news is that we have already far exceeded our goal of attracting 10 students by the end of 2018. We have received 22 requests from people who want professional training to promote coexistence with beavers. These trainees are from CA, ID, ME, MD, MI, MN, MO, NC, NY, OR, TN, WA, Nova Scotia, B.C.and Scotland.

This amount of interest is exciting, yet a bit overwhelming for our new program.
Many thanks to the kind people who have already made generous donations to our fundraiser. However, the bad news is that we are still over $4,000 short of our goal of raising $5000 for student training, and now we have even more students than we planned. So our need for some financial support is real.

We and our students would be very grateful for any contribution, no matter how modest. If you act in the next 48 hours before our fundraiser ends (Tuesday, August 21), your donation will be doubled by a generous benefactor.

Thank you for your consideration and support. Please click here to help us promote beaver coexistence.

Having a donor who will match funds for two more days is pretty motivating. Think of the beavers all over you can help. You know what they say. Give a man a fish and he will eat for a day. But teach a man to save beavers and they will improve the fish population so he can eat for a lifetime.
