THE AU'DU'B O'Ne BULL Raa 
MEMORIAL FUNDS OF ILLINOIS AUDUBON 
A suitable memorial for a relative or a dear friend could be a donation 
to one of Illinois Audubon Society’s permanent funds: 
SANCTUARY FUND — This fund is the best assurance that we can 
fulfill our aim of preserving natural habitat for all native flora and 
fauna. This can also be aided by property gifts of parcels of land. 
BOOK FUND — The book fund is used to finance the publications of 
fairly extensive manuscripts. The current book being produced deals 
with where to find birds in Illinois. 
EDUCATION FUND — This fund is used to further the many facets 
of the society's educational ventures. This can include films or slides 
to be loaned out for educational use, free reprints and leaflets. 
ENDOWMENT INVESTMENT FUND — The endowment investment 
fund is a reservoir for insuring the continued existence of the society. 
The interest from the investments is used in the general fund, but 
never the principal. Securities and trusts would automatically become 
a part of this fund. 
What better way could you find to honor those among us who 
have passed on? Help the aims of our Society through a Memorial 
Donation.
