Natural History Association |
|
 The Kilauea Point Natural History Association works in cooperation
with the United States Fish and Wildlife Service to promote interpretive, educational, and
scientific projects that focus on Hawaii's unique natural history. Due to Hawaii's
geographic isolation, its islands present self-contained ecosystems that are among the
most interesting in the world.KPNHA is a
non-profit, tax exempt, educational corporation. Gifts to the association are tax
deductible. Independent of government funding, its work is sustained by memberships,
contributions, and sales from a shop it operates at Kilauea Point. A wide variety of
items are available at the shop, including information on the endangered plant and animal
species that are seen during a visit to the refuge. All proceeds are used by the
Association to further its educational, scientific, and interpretive goals. The
albatross tracking project at Kilauea Point is an example of our funding projects
reflecting our goals. If you wish to join our Association and receive a brochure
that will give you membership benefit information (family membership is $15.00), write to
KPNHA, P.O. Box 1130, Kilauea, HI 96754. |
