Thanks for a fantastic Wild Night Out 2025! We’ll see you again in 2026, and for other Chintimini events, check out the Events page!

Ready to get wilder for Wild Night Out?

Chintimini Wildlife Center cordially invites you to Wild Night Out 2025 on Saturday, September 13th from 6:00 pm – 9:00 pm at the OSU Alumni Center. This auction event is Chintimini’s major annual fundraiser, and helps us to sustain doing our vital work in wildlife rehabilitation and education!

This evening features a live and silent auction, visits by our ambassador birds of prey, reptiles, and invertebrates. Head to the event website for a sneak peak at some of the live and silent auction items we will have available! Wild Night Out will also feature a delicious buffet dinner by Honeybrine Catering, cider provided by 2 Towns Cider, wine from local wineries, and more! You don’t want to miss it!

Many will remember last year, Peregrine Falcon Ambassador Kit and Bearded Dragon Ambassador Andre created some special art just for the live auction–rest assured, we have more surprises and event favorites just for Wild Night Out 2025!

We are also searching for table sponsors, so if you are interested in purchasing a table, that is an option! Table sponsors receive early entrance at 5:30 pm, giving you more time with ambassadors animals, silent auction items, and all the fun Wild Night Out has to offer! 

We are also still on the lookout for business sponsorships, and if are interested in partnering and the benefits of sponsorship, reach out to Development Coordinator Heather Gibons at donate@chintiminiwildlife.org!

Want to help out even more?

Can you contribute to making “Wild Night Out” an absolute success? Here are a few ways you can continue to help raise vital funds to save wildlife today. 

1. Sponsorships: We’re on the lookout for businesses or individuals interested in sponsoring our event. We offer a range of levels and benefits. This way, the funds earned can have a direct impact on wildlife, rather than being directed towards venue fees, catering, and other necessary event expenses.
2. In-kind Gifts: Our silent auction showcases an array of incredible baskets, exclusive products, services, artworks, excursions, vacation packages, and unique experiences, generously contributed by community members like you. We’re in need of additional contributions to amplify our impact!
3. Matching Donation: Would you be interested in doubling your impact? Consider the power of matching donations. Even a modest match, like $500, enables us to receive $1,000, translating to feeding hundreds of patients. To illustrate, in just 7 days, we utilized $2,500 worth of insects to provide vital nutrition to our orphaned patients in need.

If you’re able to contribute to any of these aspects, please get in touch with our Development Coordinator at auction@chintiniminiwildlife.org! Your involvement can make all the difference!
