The purpose of the organization is to promote the international network of Parrot Head Clubs as humanitarian groups sharing information and social activities for mutual benefit. The organization will engage in activities that are charitable, educational and that promote the general welfare of the community. Parrot Heads in Paradise, Inc. is a Not-For-Profit Corporation, whose purpose is to assist in community and environmental concerns and provide a variety of social activities for people who are interested in the music of Jimmy Buffett and the tropical lifestyle he personifies.

What started with a single club in Atlanta, founded by Scott Nickerson, has blossomed into a network of some 230+ chapters around the United States, Canada and Australia, all driven by the desire to leave this world a little better than we found it … and have a BLAST while doing it.

In the eight year period 2002 – 2009, Parrot Head Clubs collectively raised for or donated to local charitable, social and environmental causes more than $19.2 million and some 2,480,000 volunteer hours! 

Parrot Heads truly are “Angels in Tropical Shirts.”
