Who we are
Bugs In Community is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization created to connect people through a shared appreciation for insects and other invertebrates. We believe that education, collaboration, and hands-on experiences can help people better understand these essential animals and the role they play in healthy ecosystems.
Small creatures. A worldwide impact.
Our goal is to support conservation efforts, create educational opportunities, encourage collaboration among organizations, and help the next generation explore entomology and the natural world. By bringing people and resources together, we hope to build a community that protects invertebrates and the environments they depend on.
Why your support matters
Insects and other invertebrates help pollinate plants, recycle nutrients, support food webs, and keep ecosystems functioning. Yet many populations face growing pressure from habitat loss, climate change, pollution, pesticide use, and other environmental changes. Protecting these animals begins with research, education, and people who understand why they matter.
Every donation counts.
Your support will help Bugs In Community develop educational programs, expand access to entomology, support scholarships and research opportunities, and contribute to conservation projects that protect invertebrates and their habitats.
