SCDNR Seabird, Shorebird, and Wading Bird Program

Tracking Volunteer Contributions

The purpose of this website is to document the time and miles that volunteers contribute to SCDNR projects that are funded by federal grants. Volunteer time and miles will be used as match for the grants and enables us to leverage all resources available in order to continue to conduct management, monitoring and research for seabirds, shorebirds, and wading birds in South Carolina.

Your contributions are very valuable to the SCDNR Waterbird Program. We hope that this web page is a convenient way for you to document and certify your contributions. Please contact us at wadingbirds@dnr.sc.gov if you need help with the website or you would prefer to use a paper certification form. More information about the value of volunteers to SCDNR can be found on the Sea Turtle Program website.
