Membership Levels & Benefits
By becoming a Supporting Member* of the Institute for Wildlife Studies you help sustain our efforts to study and restore bald eagles and peregrine falcons on the California Channel Islands. Memberships are tax-deductible to the full extent of the law.
Each new or renewing member will also receive a Bald Eagle Tote Bag as a special "Thank You" gift.
*** As we transition to new suppliers, we are updating our clothes and hat options. Membership clothing gifts will be the same designs as are shown in our Bald Eagle & Peregrine Falcon Support Store. We will be updating this page shortly to reflect the new designs.
We currently have a very limited supply of old IWS Logo t-shirts, sweatshirts and hoodies, and of the Channel Islands and Eagle’s Head caps. These will be given away as part of our Nest Adoption Challenge. ***
