Iowa Young Birders is committed to encouraging the development of young birders, which is why we're excited to offer our Camp Scholarships for a third year.

Scholarships of up to $500 will be given to one or more young birders interested in attending one of the American Birding Association Young Birder Camps or any other approved young birder camp.  Scholarships are open to any young birder who is an Iowa resident and 13-18 years of age.  

"These camps are a great way for young birders to not only improve their skills, but also connect with other young birders from across the country and develop a lifetime of friendships," said Tyler Harms, Executive Director of Iowa Young Birders.  "We're lucky to have the generous support of many donors who appreciate the importance of these opportunities for young birders."

The deadline for scholarship applications is February 1.  For more information about these scholarships, to apply, or to make a donation to our scholarship fund, click here.
