Friends of Outer Island
We are citizens from all walks of life with an interest in protecting the environment and serving the public. Visit, donate, or volunteer to be a Friend of Outer Island.
Connect with FOI on:
Our Mission is to:
- Preserve the natural resources of Outer Island
- Provide environmental education and wildlife dependent recreation
- Assist with maintenance and improvement of island facilities
All facilities at Outer Island
are CLOSED at this time.
June 2, 2020 The USFWS and FOI are very happy to provide this remote training document to all our returning volunteers. Due to current health concerns, volunteers are not yet allowed to resume any on-refuge duties. The SignUpGenius scheduling program for Outer Island is therefore not active. If and when volunteers are allowed to resume normal duties, we will notify everyone promptly. Thank you for understanding. Please stay well!
