We were raised by the woods, the water, and the wild things.

Each member of our all-women team at Friends of Ottawa National Wildlife Refuge grew up with dirt under our nails, wind in our hair, and a deep respect for the natural world. Whether we were birding with our grandmothers, wading through creeks with our cousins, or planting wildflowers in our backyards, we were shaped by nature. We were raised by it. And now, we're fighting to protect it.

Ottawa National Wildlife Refuge is the only national wildlife refuge complex in Ohio, and we?re proud to support it every single day. From restoring habitats and welcoming visitors, to mentoring young conservationists and funding critical wildlife projects, we are the nonprofit support system for this place we love.

That?s why we designed this shirt.

This campaign is about raising awareness and raising funds to protect the wild spaces that raised us. Proceeds from every shirt sold go directly to support wildlife conservation, habitat restoration, and environmental education at the refuge.

Because Girls Just Want to Have Funding?for wildlife, for wetlands, for the future.
