How to Support the Wildlife Center

Donate Online

Chintimini Wildlife Center is in the midst of a historically busy summer, with unprecedented levels of admissions to our wildlife hospital. Our total number of admissions is up 27% as compared to this time in 2023. Just this week, we admitted patient number 1200 for the year! We have also admitted 152 unique species, up from 118 at this time last year. 

We have admitted almost twice as many mammals this year, which require more overall time in care and resources from staff compared to bird patients. We still have multiple months to go in the busy season, and with our major fundraiser (Wild Night Out) not until September, we’re asking for financial support from our community to help reduce the strain of this record number of patients.

What will your donations go towards?

$10 buys one bottle of bleach to keep our facilities disinfected

$25 provides insect meals to a nestling swallow for one week

$125 allows us to purchase vaccines for foxes and raccoons

$220 purchases a bucket of species-specific formula for young mammal patients 

$1000 feeds one juvenile Great Horned Owl throughout their entire stay in the rehab clinic

Our wildlife rehabilitation staff continues to provide excellent care to a diverse range of native wildlife species including skunks, songbirds, raccoons, and raptors (and many more!). The Chintimini Wildlife Center greatly appreciates the support of our generous community as we navigate this increase in wildlife patients, and any amount you donate will make a wonderful difference for the animals that need us!

Make a gift in any amount directly online. Your meaningful contribution will help us continue to inspire learners of all ages and from all backgrounds, provide medical care and aide to wild animals in need, and offer guidance for wildlife-related circumstances through our wildlife hotline.
