     The Northwest Indiana Chapter of Waterfowl U.S.A. is a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt, nonprofit organization dedicated to raising funds for the purchase, protection, restoration, and enhancement of wetlands and waterfowl habitat in the Northwest Indiana area.
     The Northwest Indiana Chapter of Waterfowl U.S.A. was organized in January of 1988. It is our goal to preserve some of the remaining wetlands within the Northwest Indiana area and to provide suitable habitat for waterfowl and other species of wildlife.

     The Northwest Indiana Chapter of Waterfowl U.S.A. currently owns and manages three (3) waterfowl habitat properties in Northwest Indiana. They are the Jerry Allen Waterfowl Management Unit, the D. Thomas Sporre Wildlife Area, and the Don & Mary Roberts Wildlife Area. Please be sure to visit our "Chapter Projects" page for complete and detailed information.

   

    Waterfowl U.S.A., Northwest Indiana Chapter was founded in January 1988 and is a national non-profit, conservation organization, dedicated to using funds in the areas in which they are raised for local and state waterfowl projects. It was founded by biologists for the purpose of preserving and improving wintering and breeding habitat within the United States. There was, and still is, a tremendous need to fund waterfowl projects on the local level.

                                                                                                              Without members and Executive Supporter's supporting us, we can't continue to improve waterfowl habitat in the Northwest Indiana Area. We therefore urge you to consider becoming a member or Executive Supporter of the Northwest Indiana Chapter of Waterfowl USA.  If you would like more information, please see our "Membership Page" and print and fill out the  form and we will send you everything you'll need to join us in improving local waterfowl habitat. Or feel free to call Don Roberts @ (219) 322-1545 or John Jelinek @ (219)465-7039  for more information on becoming a Executive Supporter or member of the Northwest Indiana Chapter of Waterfowl USA.
