Kellogg Bird Sanctuary Renovation Campaign

We’re just $750,000 away from completing our $4.7 million campaign to renovate the Kellogg Bird Sanctuary’s welcome center, auditorium, and offices—spaces that have welcomed visitors since the 1960s.

These renovations will honor the existing footprint while adding energy-efficient upgrades, ADA-accessible entrances and restrooms, flexible multi-use spaces, and a new outdoor classroom—ensuring the Sanctuary is welcoming, inclusive, and sustainable for generations to come.

Thanks to generous donors and grant support, $3.9 million has already been raised. Now, we invite donors at every level to help us cross the finish line. Every gift—large or small—moves this project closer to completion.

For those wishing to make a lasting, named investment, two special naming opportunities remain:

• $500,000 Naming Opportunity — Naming rights for the renovated office spaces
• $10,000 Naming Opportunity — Recognition on the Sanctuary’s Major Donor Wall

Whether you give $25, $250, $2,500, or more, your support helps ensure the Sanctuary continues to connect visitors with the incomparable beauty of nature.

Join us in shaping the next 100 years of the Kellogg Bird Sanctuary!

Help us cross the finish line. Thank you!
