South Florida Audubon Society (SFAS) is a chapter of Audubon of Florida and National Audubon Society, Inc. We provide a wide range of services to members and the general public including:

Field trips for watching birds and enjoying nature
Participation in local, regional, and national events such as Water Matters Day, Give Thanks for the Environment Day, Earth Day, Christmas Bird Count, and the Great Backyard Bird Count
Environmental education program
Local and regional advocacy on environmental and conservation issues
TogetherGreen Projects

South Florida Audubon Society (SFAS) formerly was known as the Broward County Audubon Society. Because of its growth and regional outreach, a change of name and logo was needed.

Officers and Board of Director members serve one year terms from October 1 to September 30 of the following year. Click here to see a profile of the President of South Florida Audubon Society. Visit the archives to see achievements and history of this 5(c)(3) nonprofit organization.
