Osborne Partners for Education Endowment

This endowment was started by Susi Nehls and Roy Blair in memory of Susi's father; Dr. Joe Hickey. Dr. Hickey's research led to legislation that protected birds of prey like the bald eagle. Dr. Hickey's passion for teaching others about the natural world was sparked early by adults who introduced him to the wonders of nature.

Your gift to the Osborne Partners for Education Endowment Fund is invested and grows forever to support the mission of the Osborne Nature Center. The Clayton County Conservation Board will direct your fund to enhance and sustain nature education programs for the youth at Osborne Nature Center.
