Friends of Ottawa National Wildlife Refuge
Friends of Ottawa National Wildlife Refuge is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit established in 1997 that supports the conservation mission Ohio’s only national wildlife refuge complex by acquiring land, engaging the community and enhancing public access. Most of our tours and events are offered to you - free of charge! If you would like to make a donation to allow us to continue to make a visible impact on the refuge please visit www.friendsofottawanwr.org. You may also make a donation in the Rookery Nature Store inside of the Refuge Visitor Center.
