Friends of the Ridgefield National Wildlife Refuge

Are you ready to find your perfect match in helping endangered species thrive? Join us as we discover the amazing qualities of just a few of the wildlife species in need of your love and care. 

Pick a "bachelor" and sponsor his journey to find love on our refuge during this GiveBig 2024, and help us raise funds for endangered species, habitat restoration like invasive species removal and native plantings, everything needed to outfit the new Community Nature Center building completely, and environmental outreach and education materials and activities, and much more.

Are you ready to take a leap of faith and fund a refuge in need? Love is blind, but giving is always in sight. Stay tuned to this page as the "bachelors" are revealed and we get to know them all throughout the two days. Hints and previews to come, so follow our social media, bookmark this page, and keep checking back!
