About Amigos De Bolsa Chica

P.O. Box 1563, Huntington Beach, CA 92647, US

Mission Statement

We advocate for the full protection of the Bolsa Chica Ecological Reserve and educate our community about its ecological value.

Description

The Amigos de Bolsa Chica is one of the oldest and most successful environmental preservation organizations in California. We rely upon members, volunteers and the community to continue fulfilling our mission.

The Amigos de Bolsa Chica is a 501(c)3 foundation that was formed in 1976 by a small group of Huntington Beach citizens who were concerned about the loss of a rare and valuable piece of open space, the Bolsa Chica wetland.

Over the years the Amigos have provided off-site programs and guided tours of the Bolsa Chica Ecological Reserve for thousands of school children and adults.
