Donate to Our Rescue
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your contribution
Your Donation Gives Wildlife a Second Chance
501(c)(3) Nonprofit | NYS Licensed Wildlife Rehabilitator
Every donation directly supports the rescue, rehabilitation, and care of injured, orphaned, and sick wildlife, with specialized care for foxes, coyotes, and other native mammals.
Our facility provides a safe, quiet place for wildlife to heal. From specialized indoor care areas to spacious outdoor enclosures, each space is designed around the animals’ unique needs while minimizing human interaction and encouraging the natural behaviors they will need to survive in the wild.
Our goal is always the same: to give every animal the time, care, and second chance they need to return healthy and strong to the heart of the wild—where they belong.
100% of Your Donation Goes Directly to Their Care
Your generosity helps provide essential medical treatment, species-appropriate food—including the large amount of fresh meat required to feed our carnivores—rehabilitation supplies, bedding, medications, enrichment, and the building and maintenance of safe enclosures.
Every dollar matters. Every donation helps. Every life is worth the effort.

Every contribution helps provide food, medical care, supplies, and safe rehabilitation spaces for the wildlife in our care. Thank you for helping us give them a second chance!
