Tiny Symbolic
Ambassadors
Symbolic
monarchs that we exchange are ambassadors that carry messages between
northern students and students in Mexico, where the monarchs overwinter.
The symbolic monarch you make represents you and expresses your interest,
friendship, and appreciation for the role the Mexican people play in
monarch conservation.
So far symbolic
butterflies from 24 states have begun their migration to the mountains
of Mexico! Are your butterflies among the 1,044 paper butterflies already
migrating?

Check Your Steps--Did You "Check" the Checklist for 2005?
1) Print the Migration Checklist and read the packing information carefully.
2) Follow the mailing instructions on the Migration Checklist exactly.
3) Check each box as you complete each task.
4) Enclose the Migration Checklist with your butterflies.
"We're Helping Monarchs"--Your Donations at Work
Students' contributions have helped protect the Monarch Butterfly Sanctuaries in Mexico in many ways. This year we hope for 100% participation! The sanctuaries are not adequately protected. Deforestation threatens the habitat monarchs need to survive. Saving the sanctuaries is a challenge because the people who live there depend on the forest for survival too, just like the monarchs. All student donations support the Monarch Butterfly Sanctuary Foundation's important work. Please help!
Visit the Monarch Butterfly Sanctuary Foundation website for details.
