Donate to the building of our Wildlife Center

Help us to raise $750,000 to start building a Wildlife Rehabilitation Center in Hampton Roads. 

There is a definite need for a Wildlife Rehabilitation Center in this area. Since construction of houses, shopping centers, etc has met the destruction of the natural habitats that our wild neighbors once inhabited, we have a moral obligation to make things right for them. Each year, the number of wild animals that need help increases. Each year, the community relies on the help from a handful of licensed wildlife rehabilitators who do their work with no financial assistance derived from any local, state, or federal government. Most of the wild animals rescued and brought to Wildlife Response rehabilitators were attacked by family pets, struck by vehicles, poisoned intentionally and unintentionally, and still others were made orphans when their mothers were trapped and relocated or killed.

Please help, however small to fund the construction of this native Wildlife Rehabilitation Center.

As with every organization there is a time where it needs to change to grow. Wildlife Response, Inc. ("WRI") is at this point. We NEED a center to be able to advance our mission. WRI's hotline receiving over 11,000 calls a year proves this. Our team of permitted wildlife rehabilitators receiving thousands of wild animals each year proves this. WRI's education programs, reaching out to the thousands, proves this. WRI leadership saw this need years ago when we started the process of researching available land for a center in 2005 after the City of Virginia Beach's adoption
