Wolf Hollow has listed their second project with LoveAnimals.org, a crowd-funding website that helps connect animal welfare and wildlife conservation non-profits with donors.
“We are very excited to be involved again with LoveAnimals.org” said Julie Duke, Executive Director at Wolf Hollow. “There are so many projects that we need funding for and in the past it has been difficult to reach a wider audience to help realize those needs.”
Wolf Hollow was funded in 1982 and has provided care for nearly 12,000 injured and orphaned wild animals. Its mission is to promote the well-being of wildlife and their habitats trough rehabilitation, public education and non-invasive research.
LoveAnimals.org was created so organizations like Wolf Hollow can access crowd-funding resources and reach the larger audience that is critical to the funding of its projects.
With the help of LoveAnimals.org in 2013, Wolf Hollow was able to raise the funds needed to rehabilitate two bald eaglets until they were ready to be released back into the wild. This year the project will focus on Riot and Rowdy, two orphaned river otter kits, who will need food and care for six months before they are ready to be released. The project is asking donors for a total of $5000 to cover the costs of rehabilitation.
“Animal welfare and wildlife conservation non-profits currently receive only two percent of all giving in America,” said Sarah Timms, founder of Loveanimals.org. “We created Loveanimals.org so organizations like Wolf Hollow can reach a larger pool of donors.”
Wolf Hollow’s project will run through October 18. To donate or learn more visit www.loveanimals.org/wild/otter-rehabilitation.html.
