As a dedicated group of birders and bird conservationists, the committee members strive to be mentors for birders and recognize the real pressures that college students face by pursuing higher education as well as the mounting costs of tuition, books, and room and board. The annual Black and Latinx Birders Scholarship of Maryland & DC aims to alleviate some of the financial burden of higher education that birders in our community face.

We are committed to supporting college bound birders and the scholarship fund needs YOUR support to increase the financial support we can give to Black and Latinx birders pursuing an education in the fields of environmental science or the biological sciences.

Two scholarships will be awarded each year. Scholarship awards range from a minimum of $2,500 to a maximum of $5,000, depending on funding for the current year. The more money that is raised the more financial support can be provided to award recipients.

Donate today. Your gift WILL make a difference for a college bound birder!
