Take a stand for invertebrates

Starting a fundraiser for Xerces is one of the best ways to increase awareness and support for invertebrates. With a little creativity, any event can become a way to raise funds for invertebrates and their habitat. Together, we can make a big difference for the little creatures that run the world.

Please reach out at any time with questions to engagement@xerces.org.
