Join the Student Chapter of Mizzou Tigers for Tigers

MU students and members of the Columbia community are helping to save wild tigers through their membership on campus. The group participates in various events on campus and throughout mid-Missouri to raise awareness about conservation issues and raise funds that are used directly to fund international tiger conservation efforts. You don't need to be a student of Mizzou to attend meetings and volunteer.

What Kids Can Do

Educate yourself, then educate others. Check out the resources and links listed within this Web site. Within a few weeks or months of studying, you could become the tiger expert in your home, school, scout troop or town! Then, think of ways to share your knowledge with others.

Invite Mizzou Tigers for Tigers to your class or school group.
Our group would love to visit your class and talk to you about tiger biology and conservation. Contact us at tigers4tigers@missouri.edu to learn more or to schedule a visit.

Organize an activity to raise money and make a donation to a tiger conservation organization. There are lots of different ways to raise money. Talk to your friends and teachers about your ideas. For examples of what other kids have done to support tiger conservation, visit the Save the Tiger Fund Kids and Teachers page.

Write a letter or start a petition. Start a letter writing campaign or circulate a petition that urges support for tiger conservation. You could target your political leaders, leaders of Asian countries where tigers occur, or companies that have famous tiger characters.
