IRS990/Desc0Betty Petersen Conservation Fund - provides support to finance direct conservation actions for three endangered Caribbean species: the Black-capped Petrel in Haiti, the Ridgway's Hawk in the Dominican Republic, and the White-breasted Thrasher in St. Lucia. In all these projects, community involvement (especially with youth) has been a key factor. In Haiti, entire farming communities that cultivate lands adjacent to the petrel's nesting colonies are pledging to protect these critical breeding areas while in the Dominican Republic, teenagers are volunteering to guard the hawks' nests. Field work in Saint Lucia enhances conservationists' ability to raise people's awareness to conserve its unique thrasher species. This work was made possible by the many generous donations to the Betty Fund.

IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy3Grp/Desc0Caribbean Birding Trail (CBT) - project aims to connect people to the extraordinary places, diverse cultures, and people on the Caribbean Islands. The CBT promotes authentic experiences that benefit local people and encourages the protection of the Caribbean's natural resources, including birds and their habitats. In a pandemic year, travel and trainings were restricted, so BirdsCaribbean focused on improving its online resources, including an extensive update of the CBT Guide page. Expert local guides are essential to getting the most out of a travel experience, so we have gathered information on the best in the region-all within one handy directory on the CBT website.
