Prevent an Exinction
There is a special wetland here in North Oakland County that supports a wide diversity of species including a tiny butterfly called the Poweshiek Skipperling.
NOHLC has kicked off a campaign to preserve the rare habitat the butterfly calls home. With less than 100 individuals left in the world, it is up to us to give this federally-endangered butterfly a fighting chance. Learn more on our Save the Poweshiek page.
Our fundraising goal is $275,000. That includes $150,000 to purchase 21.5 acres of fen and oak opening; $75,000 to purchase 16 acres of adjacent property; and $50,000 to restore and maintain property.
Total Raised to Date is $171,000
