Donate
Every little bit helps! Did you know that raising a joey from intake to release typically costs $300-600? This cost helps to cover food, veterinary care, medication, daily care necessities, and transportation for release. You generosity is greatly appreciated by both the animals and their carers!
If you are unable to donate but are still interested in getting involved in other ways, such as sewing pouches, please contact us!

Join the phone roster
One of the services we provide is responding to phone calls regarding injured wildlife. We are only able to do this because of the help of our volunteers! This responsibility involves carrying the phone for a few days out of the month to answer questions or provide help to injured and orphaned wildlife.
We are actively in need of people to assist us to man the phone. Training will be provided and experienced carers are always available to help field questions. If you have some time available we would love to hear from you!

We are always in need of more carers! Whether your are interested in caring for mammals, birds, or reptiles, we are always looking to get more people involved. We have experienced carers to assist you in training, obtaining a permit, and in the day to day care of our native animals! Please contact us with expressions of interest. We will be in touch to let you know when a training session will be held.
