The Friends of Seney National Wildlife Refuge is a volunteer powered 501(c)(3) organization and a proud partner of the Seney National Wildlife Refuge. Our fundamental mission is to support refuge activities that protect and preserve habitat and wildlife, and connect people to the resources of the refuge.

The Seney National Wildlife Refuge was established in 1935 for the protection of migratory waterfowl. Its diverse habitat provides refuge and breeding grounds for over 200 bird species, 50 mammal species, 26 fish species, 22 reptile and amphibian species. The refuge offers opportunities for hiking, biking, skiing, driving, birdwatching, and fishing. Learn more about the Seney National Wildlife Refuge fws.gov/refuge/Seney
