FOAR has a long-time dues paying membership and has made huge efforts to increase the public donation and membership numbers and public percentage in 2024 and fully expect the public portion to rise well above 33.3% again in 2024. FOAR has a large board of directors that represents the broad interests of the public, and provides facilities or services directly for the benefit of the general public (visitors, birders and hunters) on a continuing basis at publicly accessible facilities within the newly renamed Jocelyn Nungaray National Wildlife refuge. In 2024, FOAR has added a substantial number of members and received far more small public donations than previously.
