Mission: Seattle Audubon cultivates and leads a community that values and protects birds and the natural environment.
Vision: We do this because Seattle Audubon envisions a healthy environment in balance with nature, where people enjoy, respect, and care for the natural resources that sustain the community of life.
Description:
Founded in 1916, we're the oldest natural history organization and one of the most active and effective in Washington State. For our first 63 years we were completely volunteer-run and today we have approximately 60 volunteers for every one staff member. Volunteers continue to be the heart of Seattle Audubon, its strength and richness. You would join a stellar volunteer force. We look forward to your contributing to our mission and programs on behalf of birds and nature.
History:
Historically, we have been a leader in education about, conserving and advocating for nature. We specialize in education, conservation, and land preservation. We're affiliated with the National Audubon Society as the sixth largest of over 500 chapters, yet we are directed by our own board and raise our own operating funds. With a membership of about 5500, we enjoy an image among the public as a moderate, well-reasoned voice within the environmental community. We also enjoy an enviable reputation for our ability to attract and retain volunteers who bring high levels of expertise and passion.
