Help Support Shorebird Nesting

July 02, 2018

SCWF is one of many organizations supporting a new SCDNR S.C. Coastal Bird Conservation Program to protect and restore rapidly disappearing coastal bird habitat.  The pilot project is to raise approximately $2 million for the cost share needed for the restoration of Crab Bank with dredged material from the Charleston Harbor Deepening Project. Crab Bank, an island created in Charleston Harbor with dredged material and former home to thousands of nesting coastal birds, has eroded to the point that it is unsuitable for bird use.  For more information on this effort and/or to make a donation for coastal bird habitat please go to this site: https://www.sccoastalbirds.org/crab-bank-project

A short explanatory video on Crab Bank is available at:
