We have some exciting news. We are launching the 1969 Leadership Giving Society, named for the year Manomet was founded. This new society recognizes and celebrates donors who generously sustain and advance Manomet’s mission.

Why now? This is a pivotal moment for Manomet. The challenges facing shorebirds and coastal ecosystems are accelerating, and so is our ability to respond through on-the ground science, strong partnerships with communities, and focused conservation action.

 

Since 2022, Manomet’s budget has more than doubled, allowing us to significantly expand our impact across the Western Hemisphere. Today, we are more focused than ever on recovering shorebird populations, and understanding and addressing the challenges that coastal communities face amidst a climate-impacted shoreline.

The 1969 Leadership Giving Society brings together a community of supporters to invest in our future and ensure that Manomet’s work continues to grow in scale and impact.

Through the Society, members will receive meaningful recognition and opportunities to connect with like-minded supporters, and will play a vital role in helping advance conservation science locally and across the Western Hemisphere. I would be honored to welcome you into this leadership community and invite you to make a leadership investment in Manomet’s future. To honor our legacy, membership in the Society begins with an annual gift of $1,969. While we hope you will consider joining the Society, we are deeply grateful for support at every level and welcome a gift in any amount that reflects your commitment to Manomet’s work.

Thank you for your partnership in advancing Manomet’s mission and addressing today’s conservation challenges. Your support provides the flexible resources needed to respond to emerging opportunities, strengthen our science, and accelerate conservation impact where it is needed most. I hope you will consider making your leadership gift today and joining us as a founding member of the 1969 Leadership Giving Society. I look forward to welcoming you and your fellow founding members to our inaugural gathering this fall as we celebrate the launch of this important new initiative.

To the right is an overview of the society’s leadership levels. I hope you will consider joining at a level that is meaningful to you and helps advance our mission.
