Friends of the Musk Ox

Friends of the Musk Ox, casually known as FOMO, is our membership support organization.

We are currently making major organizational changes to ensure long-term stability of the project. There is much work to be done.
Our major fundraising goal for this year is $350,000 which we hope to meet with a combination of grants and private gifts.
