How You Can Help


An undertaking like the Maine Eagle Cane Project is a labor of love. Dedicated wood carvers and woodturners eagerly give their time and talents, often using their own supplies. We also rely heavily on donations to make this project happen.


There are several ways in which to help:

**If you are a carver:

We will gladly provide you with a kit containing a tapered, tenoned dowel, an eagle head blank, glass eyes, an adaptor, and a rubber foot, or whatever individual supplies you need. On the Carving Instructions page you will find links to tutorials, patterns, and any other information you will need to complete a cane. You can also email with any questions.

**If you are not a carver but would like to help:

It is the spirit of volunteerism and the commitment to honor our veterans that make this work. Unfortunately, we have expenses to cover...shipping, supplies, etc We are grateful to MDI Woodcarvers, Peavey Manufacturing, and Unique Canes for their generous price reductions. We still, however, do have to pay for these supplies.
