The Peterson Annual Fund
RTPI provides a powerful synergy of Art, Education and Conservation that is positively focused on natural history and the environment. Through these three “pillars” we develop and implement initiatives that open people’s eyes to the natural world around them, initiatives that are focused on place but are connected through a global framework.
Gifts to the Peterson Annual Fund provide support for the day to day operations of the Institute, and are critical to the work of carrying Roger Tory Peterson’s legacy, using Art, Education and Conservation – we need your help to make it all happen! Please consider monthly giving – you gift will make an impact every day – thank you!
Here is what your gift will make possible:
- A brand new Roger Tory Peterson Permanent Exhibit documenting his remarkable life and groundbreaking work
- innovative programming to bring nature back into people’s lives – and back into the classroom
- Hands-on conservation research that benefits endangered species and natural places
- ‘Conservation through education’ initiatives where young people follow in the footsteps of Roger Tory Peterson, studying urban habitats and wildlife
