Steps

Contact local nursing homes to see if they are in need of bird feeders.

  • Gather a few volunteers to help in collecting bird feeders and delivering them.
  • Collect donations from church members and local businesses. Some stores like Lowe’s offer bird feeder recycling where anyone who brings in an old feeder gets a discount on a new one. Ask if you can have the recycled feeders.
  • As you deliver the bird feeders, stop by the nursing homes to chat with the residents.

Tips

  • In addition to bird feeders, you can also collect birdhouses. In some nursing homes, residents decorate houses for birds.
