The Georgia Ornithological Society (GOS) aims to promote the scientific study of birds and disseminate information on Georgia bird life. Its mission includes bird conservation through habitat preservation vital for both resident and migratory birds. GOS supports these goals by offering scholarships, publishing scientific research, and fostering a community interested in nature.
The grant emphasizes projects that aid in the conservation of native bird species in Georgia, including those permanently residing, seasonally present, or using the state as a migration stopover. Projects should ideally have matching funding and are typically capped at a request of $5,000 from GOS. Supported initiatives include bird conservation efforts, research projects, or public education programs specifically targeting bird conservation in Georgia. Examples of past funded projects encompass bird surveys, chick mortality studies, educational materials on bird assistance, public education initiatives, and research on birds' physiological and behavioral needs. Special attention is given to undergraduate and graduate students through specific grants and to organizations seeking more than $5,000 for bird conservation management actions.
