Ways to Give

 2024 Annual Appeal

Do you remember the fun of turning over a big stone to see what’s underneath? How about the excitement of seeing a hawk flying overhead? At the Darien Nature Center, we are working to protect nature and to make nature a part of all of our lives.


Thanks to donors like you, we have expanded our program offerings, elevated the care of our beloved animals, and maintained our building and grounds. Your continued support will allow us to continue providing these essential services to our community.

Please consider donating generously to the Annual Fund this year.

Animal Sponsorship

Sponsoring a Nature Center animal helps to care for our 20+ resident animals and is a great way to honor a loved one. All tax-deductible donations will directly fund the feeding, shelter, and veterinary care of these unique creatures.
