About the company

Friends of Ottawa National Wildlife Refuge (FONWR) is a non-profit organization registered in SAM.gov, located in Oak Harbor, Ohio, that has been actively supporting conservation efforts in the Lake Erie Marshes region since 1997. The organization focuses on enhancing awareness and capabilities of Ohio's only National Wildlife Refuge, working closely with federal agencies to advance environmental preservation and restoration initiatives. As a tax-exempt corporate entity, FONWR provides critical support to federal conservation programs through cooperative agreements, primarily collaborating with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service's Partners for Fish and Wildlife (PFW) program.

Through its federal grant awards, FONWR has consistently delivered comprehensive habitat restoration services in northwest Ohio, particularly concentrating on wetland and upland ecosystem rehabilitation. The organization's grant-funded projects involve strategic habitat restoration, including removing field tile, constructing low-level berms, and extending hydroperiods to restore wetland hydrology on lands transitioning from agricultural production. Recent cooperative agreements, totaling approximately $459,000 from the DOI Fish and Wildlife Service Region 3, have supported efforts to restore critical habitats for migratory birds, federally threatened and endangered species, and other federal trust species. FONWR collaborates with multiple partners such as the Ohio Department of Natural Resources, USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service, and private landowners, providing technical assistance, administrative support, and financial reimbursement for restoration expenses. Their work also includes developing internship programs that create career development opportunities within wildlife conservation and implementing communication strategies to encourage ecological restoration participation.
