Threatened Species Service Patch Program® from MakingFriends.com

Our endangered animal advocate program is for groups and individuals concerned about threatened species.

Anyone can participate at any level. Volunteer as few as two hours of service or make a lifetime commitment to protect honey bees. Girl Scouts*, Boy Scouts and other youth groups can incorporate this patch program®® into their existing program but you don’t need to belong to any organization to participate. Families, friends, neighbors and even individuals can help to protect threatened species.

Our program highlights the decline in the honey bee population as an area of interest. However, you can choose any species that is threatened or endangered.

The suggested requirements are designed to make the program fun, educational and rewarding. All level requirements are flexible. You decide what works best for your group.
